What brick (and colour) would you choose? Another catch is that the mortar need to match or blend with the brick. There are so many versions of hamptons!

A brick option might be Austral Urban One Silver... What colour scheme were you originally thinking?

I'm hoping someone has a brick,mortar,roof combo that can pull me in another direction other than grey. Re: If you had to pull of country/hamptons but needed to use 6Jun 07, 2018 7:34 pm I lived in the UK for a while, and painted brick is not an uncommon sight over there. We are building a 2 storey, our builder can do weatherboard on top, so we are planning to paint the brick bottom half. I am a bit worried as painting brick over here does not seem very common and I am not sure why. I am not interested in render.
