Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Need opinions on house exterior - Hillside 35 Porter Dav 4Dec 24, 2016 10:11 pm Hughesjo25 Hi all, Hubby and I have finally decided to move the kids to the country and build our first family home, the Porter Davis Hillside 35 on one acre. We are working on all our designs/selections etc before our official appointments and are getting a bit stuck on the house exterior colour scheme (sounds a common problem after reading a bit online...) I'll try uploading some pics but we are going with the modern/contemporary Fusion facade. Suggestions by the "professionals" have been the following: - monument colourbond roof, gutters etc - monument feature render across top of garage - mudpack as main house render colour - vertical post next to garage an off-white sort of render colour. All sounds ok in theory but I"m worried it's a bit bland... We've decided on a timber look garage door, timber front door and black window frames. We currently live in Melbourne and our style is contemporary. We want something "cool" but not too out there but are so sick of the boring new houses cropping up everywhere. I'm so nervous for getting this colour scheme wrong! I feel maybe a monument main house colour with the black window frames could be fantastic (mind you were are adding in huge windows at the back of the house too so there isn't as much house as the floor plans online show) but I don't know whether that would be too out there and what roof colour would work. Help!!! Any suggestions, thoughts, advice???? Thanks in advance Do you have all the colour samples together in one pic? I find seeing them all together next to each other helps to ensure they all compliment each other.
