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.

Unless you have the money to update everything else to better complement the bricks, painting them will give you a much more updated look. Over the past 18mths I’ve been working on the front and landscape of my current house, including painting the bricks and it has made the world of difference! I’ve attached a before and after photo! Good luck.

Probably predicatably , I would say it needs some colour . I'd do at least some of the trim in charcoal ( monument or similar ) , and then match that with red or orange -- I'd redo the front door in that bright colour , to add some Wow . To me , a pink tone is when you want to fill some space when you have reds as your main colours -- that door isn't great IMO . Look at the photos , and the only two things that stand out to me , is the red chair ( in a good way ) and that roofing material used as a fence ( not quite as good haha -- I'd do that in a metallicy charcoal before the sun has set tonight if that was my place .

Yep , looks good ! The older white bricks now look even less cared for though , so a blast or a chemical clean . Also , the window with the pointy facade above it , looks a bit average as it is IMO . You have the contour and point of difference there , but painting it the same just means it blends in . The main render colour is charcoal with a blue tone -- I'd do the pointy bit in a lighter silvery blue just to add interest , without being too dramatic or different .
