Exterior Ideas please
Comments (1)Colorbond is good as its pre coloured. However the trims and flashings quickly add up as does the work required to cut around the openings such as doors and windows. To make it look good its better to use long sheets of Colorbond.....but its awkward to handle. Use it as a feature in areas that have no openings or not many rather than a whole house. A combination of Colorbond and Hardietex would look great however, especially if contrasting colours are used. I haven't seen or used the new 'Fielders Finesse Interlocking Panel' yet, but it looks very modern and could be an option, depending on your house style and your personal taste. Although, a fresh coat of paint in some newer shades maybe all your house needs. It maybe a good time to have a look at newer windows (or just glass) too. More heat is lost and gained through these than the walls.........See MoreIdeas for exterior - brick mid-century built home
Comments (43)Australia has nice examples of painted and rendered Art Deco homes. If it was a different kind of brick I would say keep it, but I think painting/rendering would really brighten the place. I love the windows. Although all pics here don't exactly match your style, they are all of that era. As mentioned in above comments, there are mix of landscaping styles that suit from conifer/gravel/grass to cottage rose garden to an Australian native garden. Do what reflects you and how much time you have for your garden....See MoreExterior Design ideas
Comments (27)From your latest photos it looks really great, glass would look awesome also , it really depends on the look you are after, glass would look really modern but that iron work looks really great, decisions , decisions....See Moreideas please for exterior colour
Comments (1)DO you have a favourite among the Colorbond colours? I like SURFMIST but they are all delightful and muted that wont dominate....See Moredreamer
