Hi Erin Both look like they will work. I think your challenge will be to bring some depth to the front of the house . With the colour being uniform its quite flat, so I would suggest adding some awnings to the front windows. These could also be a nice feature on the front of the house adding your personality. http://www.icietla.com.au in Brisbane sell some beautiful stripes. The other option was to have a base and top scheme that helped the building look a little lighter. A great transformation which ever way you go.

I think the white and charcoal will look great. Go a soft slightly blue charcoal like Dulux Monument. If you want a different option, I've seen a soft olive (Deluxe Mudpack or similar?) look great and quite modern with those bricks also. It completely changes the look of a facade as it makes the timber trims blend in subtly with the brickwork rather than being the first thing you see.

It is impossible to say without seeing the unit and understanding the natural light and the other colours. I would check out this link from Dulux, then run down to Bunnings to get some samples. https://www.dulux.com.au/colour/whites-and-neutrals/most-loved.html Dulux Vivid White always works well on 1960's trims and doors, but it would be too clinical for walls.

Hi, I agree and that it should be the ceiling colour but you could do a lighter shade of your wall colour for your ceiling colour (including the bulkheads) instead of ceiling white. Use Snowy Mountains Quarter. You will have a lot of shadows and less light on the ceiling, especially with the bulkheads, so a slightly lighter colour will help with that. Nice choice with wall colour btw. Rebecca
