Hi there, we're getting our first double storey home built by Indigo Homes, and wondering what color bricks should we be going for. Initially we've decided to for PGH Moon dust bricks as we were planning to go for a lighter brick house and a white weatherboard for the first floor.
However we've also come across dark colored brick homes which actually turn out to be equally impressive. Thinking of either Breaking Dawn bricks/ Eclipse/ Grey Stone.
We're still very indecisive bout the brick color.
Has anyone used Breaking Dawn bricks for their home? does it give out a brownish tinge of color?
We may go for rendering in a couple of years so thinking will the color choice of the bricks affect it?

Hi RileyR, have you come to a conclusion? We're almost at lockup stage and have used PGH Eclipse. For our builder they are an included brick at .74c each. Breaking Dawn is the same cost and is likely also included, but is definitely browner. I've just posted some photos. I hope this helps make your decision easier! http://www.buildinginbrisbane.com.au/new-build/nearing-lockup/
