Browse Forums Finishing Touch 1 Jul 20, 2013 5:23 pm Hi All, Currently in the process of obtaining town planning for 3 townhouse development and need to provide facade colours to the coucil but totally stuck on choosing the weatherboard colour for second level. I have chosen the following for the rest of the house: Bricks (first level) - Austral Homestead Tan (these are a dark chocolate colour) Facia / Gutter / Downpipes / Windows - Colorbond Jasper Garage Door - Colorbond Jasper I was thinking maybe Dulux Hogs Bristle or Colorbond Papperbark? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks Re: Need assistance with choosing a weatherboard colour... 2Jul 20, 2013 6:01 pm I went with Tranqil Retreat for my wall panelling after a suggestion on this site. White would also work well with a chocolate brown brick I think. It might be worthwhile getting a 3D Render done. It helped me to work out the colours I wanted. That could help if you want to get the properties on the market early (assuming you are selling them). I used budde design.
