External House Colours
Page 1 of 1
We're building a house, and we're agonising over the external facade colours. It's harder that I thought!
Anyway, we'd like to get your advice on the facade, please. Here's the link.

Bricks are Daniel Robertson 153 blend
Roof is asphalt shingle IKO dual black
Facade colour is Dulux porcelain pink
Gutters and gable barges are Dulux Monument
Windows are Dulux Manor Red
Soffits will be white or variant
Stonework veneer will be bluestone or the blend shown.
(The front door is to the right of the narrow 10 pane feature window)
Any comments are welcome, whether positive or negative. Particularly with the render colour, and the highlights on the gable barges and around the dormer window. We've got no idea with colour, but thought we'd get expert advice from the forum!
Thanks in advance!
Headland for render is too red for me.... but this is all personal opinion. Would prefer to see warm neutrals such as; (Dulux) Warm Grey, Belongil Beach, Melville Island etc. Best to get some sample pots and test paint.
Instead of bluestone, you could try a sandstone or possible use the same render on the bottom.
Does anyone else have an opinion? Please?

The Dulux colour consultants are awesome. If you show them the photos they should be able to figure it out for you straight away

Re my second point – yes exactly. And often it may take additional time if the manufacturer recommends no more than X meters…
