What roof colours are good? I read somewhere blue and black are not good. How is grey?

Roof colour and fengshui?

And as you say blue is no good because it represents water and it is not good to live with water over your head.
I'll check in some of my books see what I can find.
If you're thinking light grey I could not see any reason why not. Grey represent metal, and this should be a good thing.

anyone know?
Also as far as facades go, are there any rules? For example, doors lighter than bricks or vice versa. Colours that shouldn't be used, or colour combos that shouldn't be used?
Any help from anyone would be great.

And Bel, ignore this thread!! You're confused enough!!!
as for the others - there was another link posted here with lots of feng shui links. Maybe they will have some pointers re exteriour colours.

it's the layout of living room/kitchen/bedrooms + house facing + etc that matters most.
Black is bad for a roof colour.

Good thing my roof is going to be Barramundi then and not black!
dark colours are not desired on a roof due to them encouraging the black tortoise
Beware anything off-white as well, or any hairy roof covering. They may bring the giant mutant space goat.

I agreed to snipfer , layout is something that really more important.
There are three different colouring rules. 1 for the Emperor, like the Palace. 2. For general citizen, and 3 for religious buildings.
Now in China, most of them do not follow the rules.
For general citizen, the colour normally arrange in this way.
Roof: Green, In Wu Xing (Five Elements) Green is Wood.
Wall: Red, Red is Fire.
In Wu Xing Theory.
Heaven the sky is Metal
Rain is Water.
Roof Green is Wood.
Wall Red is Fire
The House is sitting on the Earth. So we have this arrangement. It is in the Wu Xing enhancing cycle.
Metal --> Water --> Wood --> Fire --> Earth (The Home)
If you look at the European countries, most of the roofs are red. As red is fire which controls Metal. Metal is the respiratory system. Most Europeans their respiratory system is relatively weaker.
My walls of the house is reddish. so I had my own roof painted green.
A few years ago, I designed a house for a friend in Fairfield using the above colour rules for his house. He has been doing very well. Of course the facing, layout, kitchen/bedroom/toilet are important too.

Just make sure your front door is not facing stairs if it is a double storey house. l heard thats pretty bad feng shui.
Yes, it is bad Feng Shui if outside is another stairs going down too.
