A colour called paperbark. It has green undertones so works with both the roof and windows, although will look nice against the garden too. Another is bushland, both are colourbond colours, and available in paint too.

Thanks Laura. I wish I had one to show you. The after photo is about 2 steps forward from the original shot. Where the computer is in the 'before' shot is now a beautiful entertainment unit.

Hi I think it depends on you as a family and whether you want to make a statement or be more subtle. It also depends on what your decor is like inside, don’t forget your front entrance should be the entree to what you would expect to see inside. The colour you choose needs to be bold and high gloss, nothing that matches the facade as it will just disappear. You could look at adding colour through plants and pots if you choose a more conservative colour like piano black.

Think of introducing a contrast to the white - black being very contrasting, white not being a contrast and soft grey being somewhere in between (but possibly not quite enough, in which case you may need to go for darker shades of grey) . The analogy might be framing a picture or piece of art- If the canvas is really white, you wouldn't choose a white frame. Or putting on eye makeup- if you choose to put a colour on your lids and don't include eyeliner or mascara, your eyes will lack definition ! What colour is the roof ? Also ,have you chosen the white of the exterior yet because these two factors can help in your decision process.
