Goodbye 1980's updating outdoor paint

Page 1 of 1
We moved into a 1989 built home last year, paint was drab yellow Dulux"sideshow" , had never been changed from the original. The garage doors dominated the back view which faces the side street. After painting the side fence and fuse box in colorbond Night sky , I thought Colorbond Dune for the fascia and trim but the third colour was the hardest. Eventually we went for Jasper to harmonise with the bricks. We feel like we have dragged the house into the current day and given it a grown up mature feel.


Before, everything yellow


After Dune, Nightsky and Jasper
The back veranda area now more open, the paint is done, trellis trees and shadecloth removed, thinking of a deck..it would need to be triangular to keep access to the side. Need some ideas.
