We call them Granny Flats. This is mostly because they are used to extra living area & space for family members to soften the cost of living. Some councils are now processing applications for Granny Flats, Studios, Bungalows etc, in shorter time frames to allow the structures to be built with less stress. Frame Steel offer a range of designs to cater for most council regulations & provide custom kits.

It was one of the colours the Dulux rep recommended. If you can, get sample pots and try them out. Best way to check your colours as photos don't always give a true reflection of the colour. Then you can have a look against your tiles and in different light.

Hi Italian girl, with your natural white walls what colour did you end up doing your ceiling and skirting? Also is the natural white throwing any yellow at all. I also have an open plan downstairs with a grey concrete floor tile. We are using malay grey on our fireplace and am struggling with choosing the right white for the walls. Was thinking of going with Snowy Mountains but might try natural white after seeing yours.

You have a fantastic period home and the colours you have selected are following contemporary fashion trends. However your terracotta tiled roof and chimneys are very orange, and the greys you have selected will make them see even more orange. I would be looking to the grey/greens to counterbalance the strength of the terracotta. Just remember that the fashionable greys of today are the daggy mission browns of tomorrow, especially when used on a period home like yours. This is why the current colour scheme looks so bad - as it is not original and was probably done in the 1980's. Have a look at this Haymes paint resource if you want some refreshing inspiration that is beyond today's generic greys: https://www.haymespaint.com.au/explore-colours/heritage-authentic-colours/identifying-period-styles/ Best of luck with your considerations, Dr Retro of Dr Retro House Calls
