Hi, If you take a drawer to a paint shop, their computer will match it for you. Whatever we say here, a photo is different on our computer and depends on the light in your kitchen too...

Looks a warm inviting room but the pale blue walls are a cool colour. First thing I would do is paint the walls Dulux China White. This will make a big difference to the feel. Grab yourself a sample tub and paint a big price of cardboard, move it around the room and you will see that it will look great in your room.

I can't quite follow what you mean by 'we must keep the red roof' ? Are you not painting it , or repainting in the same colour , or would you consider a different shade ? Personally , with the White Duck , I'd go for a bolder red roof , with black or charoal gutterings , stay with the crisp white windows and veranda uprights , and the end detailing on the roof , but the window sills I'd do the same red shade as the roof , and the deck a mid grey . Oh , and also , although its cliche'd , I'd do a 1 metre tall white picket fence and double gates in the crisp white , get rid of the wire mesh haha , so everything about the house and fence looks crisp and themed , but also 'period' .

what a great looking house...could you have the dark colour around the front porch, front of the garage and the alfresco walls (where it's shady in the photo) and have the rest of the house white or surfmist?
