You could match the grey on garage. Or if you want timber add some timber in front landscaping like a letterbox. Ideally we try for 3 items of a colour, will it have an echo inside when u open the door?

And if u don’t like it you could always paint it later

Kate’s nailed it, if you introduce timber (which could be a great feature) add it in a few other areas. I’d go for a mid or pale wood and stay away from yellow or red undertones. A strip on the top of your balustrade, some light fixtures, timber furniture on your balcony, fencing, the letterbox Kate mentioned…. lots of options. It’s a gorgeous home and subtle use of another colour or texture will be the cheery on top. Good luck

Here is a letterbox which would suit and also it shows that you could have just one timber element and it would look good. After the letterbox though, I think I would paint the door the same as the garage first, which would be cheaper than a new timber door and see what you think. Also, I think if you added darker green plants to the garden it would look lovely. Would love a photo down the track if possible. Enjoy the house, it looks awesome.

What about a coloured front door instead of stained timber.

It looks to me like a black and white picture , that you have photoshopped some coloured plants onto . It's almost like its taken with a soft lens . No personality or character IMO .

Personally , I'd go for painting the door ( as per dreamers suggestion ) but I'd go a sunny yellow or orange or red -- that splash of colour .

The upstairs beam and upright I'd repaint in stark black , and the balcony railing too . In fact , as you have those flat box frames around the doorway and each window panel , I'd do them all in the grey of your garage door -- just a subtle 'nod' , with the entrance door and balcony and beam adding the contrast .

Pottsy999, the picture your describing is a rendering of the proposed home, not an actual photo….

Kate, it also will have a timber theme inside with the flooring and stairs.

Dreamer, almost spot on with your feedback to Pottsy. I have simply taken a screen shot of our 3D plan, thus it looks somewhat " fake". The house is clad in Colourbond linear board.Im afraid we are too conservative to adopt the use of a brightly coloured door but all suggestions have been welcome.

A classic white house would suit a black front door, no need to add more touches of black, KISS

Thanks Jan. Julie is the amazing one with her interior design options. I always look forward to seeing what she comes up with.

Thanks Jan, ….I wonder what I said, but I’m glad it was good in the end 🤗

Looking at your 3D Photo it shows the front door receives a lot of direct sunlight, are you planning on adding a small porch. This is a lovely door combining Black and timber to work with your timber interior

Another example of a coastal door this time in Timber with white trim and showing a highlight window at the side which could be done with both doors if you need interior light

Hi siriuskey

We really like the look of this. The black is dramatic but too much for us. Thanks very much

It is a lovely beachside look and would suit your house cheers
