Need help for my exterior paint colour and exterior design
Comments (14)Hi, I like the overall concept of the darkish grey, it suits the home. I am a colour consultant and have been working with the Dulux range for 17 years and you are on the right track with the Guild Grey. The Dulux Signature will give you a dark blue house. Another option if Simone Weil which is just a bit lighter than the Guild Grey, if you find that one too dark. Sample pots and A4 brush outs onto white cardboard are the best way to decide, because computer programs give an overall impression of the "look" but are not accurate with colour choices, you can't beat the human eye. All the best, it's going to look great....See MoreHelp Modernising our 1970's Brick Home Exterior
Comments (36)This is just like our Mediterranean house in Canberra. It was rendered white which never cracked or got mould on it, though I would prefer it to be done in a modern colour like our current home on the Gold Coast which is a rich sand colour with a heavy bagged appearance that has faded from a strong dark sand. With beautiful dark patterned orangey tiles all outside that reflect their colour on the walls during the day it is quite magical. Roof tiles also spray painted after being re pointed. I suggest you amplify the lovely quality of arches and don't go for what is trendy. But go with colour scheme for the house design. At our entrance there is a built up garden courtyard feature with wonderful iron gates and a large water feature in the courtyard that the lounge room looks out to and has the French doors that also opened onto the courtyard garden. Commence the courtyard wall to the left side of the steps and create a flat area at the gated entrance where we had a north single gate and a west double gate. The Pines were planted on the outside of this courtyard wall and gave extra privacy and blocked the westerly afternoon sun. The house always looked impressive, yet was just a simple presentation....See MoreNeed Help with Exterior Paint colors for a small commercial building.
Comments (4)Hi Sandee, being a real estate business you will want to generate trust and professionalism. Therefore, garish colours - lime green - bright red - are probably out. Yes, they attract attention but it may not be from potential customers. I suggest a classy dark charcoal for the walls and a bright white for the windows, doors, and pillars. Add three large tubs, such as wine barrels, with good sized shrubs or small trees to appear more welcoming. Then add a nice sign with your logo and company colours. Good luck. Cheers, Penelope...See Moreexterior design help please
Comments (2)I think it looks like a citadel or a synagogue. What about an off white that will blend with the brick colour, even a marble look on the pillars, put colour shades in the top triangle highlighting the window. Anything that will blend and soften the brick colour...See MoreLorena Chiappara
