Render Colour Help Please ;-)

Page 1 of 1
Hello,

I have been stalking this website for months now and have finally decided to bite the bullet and go for it!!
So my story is, we are building our new house in Tasmania. So far we have our roof on (windspray colourbond) and windows are in (precious silver pearl - powder coated) So these are both a grey colour. I will also be having a panelift garage door in windspray also!!! Im loving my colours so far - but the render is starting to stress me out!! I dont want anything that will be to white - but I dont want anything to grey either!! In my mind im picturing a lovely smokey white?

Does anyone have any ideas - I can post some photos soon of the house so far!!

Once this is done - next is the Inside (KITCHEN)


Thanks Heaps - Cheers
surfmist?... so many "whites" to choose from.
Thanks - Yes this is where my problem ****** - just exactly what white!!

Just wondering wether anyone has some ideas on maybe a completely different colour scheme to match my roof & windows!! Ideally I would love to go 2 colours, just not sure if my house could pull this off though!
Cheers, T
Im actually trying to upload some pics now of the house - but it just doesnt seem to be working for me

Thank You so much d@n - Finally I got it!!
We have used Dulux Heifer which is a very pale grey, almost white looking in the sun light with a feature wall of Dulux Stepney which is a really pretty darker grey. It may be too much grey.

Left is Stepney, Right is Heifer in full sunlight.

Opposite to first photo in a little less light. Left Heifer Right Stepney.

Thank you so Much - I love those colours!!!
What colour roof/ windows do you have???

Thanks, T
We have a flat roof so you cant see it but it's Surfmist. Windows are silver

Silver frames with Heifer

Silver louvres with Heifer

Actually I think the frames are more grey but were called silver.
