Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Feb 21, 2009 8:32 pm Hi guys (Dan, Rachelle and other photoshop talented people!!)
I need some help for a friend who is in the process of selecting colours for his house. He is building the Marina with PD. He hasn't got a plan/drawing of the facade yet, but I have a link to a picture of it on the PD website. They want the Torquay facade.. http://www.porterdavis.com.au/?#homeviewer/marina/42 Anyway the colour selections are: Bricks - Boral Sandy Beach (a sort of sandy/orange colour) Mortar - Off White flush Roof - Boral Macquarie profile, Heritage colour - again a sort of orange colour Gutters - Colorbond Monument (black) Downpipes - Colorbond Monument (black) Fascia - Colorbond Surfmist (white) Garage - Colorbond Surfmist (white) Windows - Black Front Doors - Full glass with woodstain in Black Instead of the wood panelling/tiling on the facade, the whole thing will be brick. So no render or features just full brick facade Do you need links to the selections above, or are my descriptions enough? Would be so thankful if you could do this for him, he can't get access to the internet at the moment and I told him what a great job you guys did on my facade My karma ran over your dogma Re: Dan or Rachelle (or anyone) Photoshop Please!! 3Feb 21, 2009 10:18 pm Oh Dan your the man!!
That is great. The bricks are probably a bit lighter and a bit more orange and the roof is sort of orange roof tiles too, but thats ok Also where the white cladding is, that is bricks too, but again I can show him to give him the general idea. Thanks for being so generous with your time I actually like it My karma ran over your dogma Re: Dan or Rachelle (or anyone) Photoshop Please!! 4Feb 21, 2009 10:19 pm Yes, it looks nice. Those bricks are nice. Let us know what your friend thinks bel. "Your emotions are the slaves to your thoughts, and you are the slave to your emotions." — Elizabeth Gilbert Living in our new house.

The black guttering finishing off at the sides of the gable maybe makes it look a bit unfinished???
I think I might prefer white guttering.. "Your emotions are the slaves to your thoughts, and you are the slave to your emotions." — Elizabeth Gilbert Living in our new house.

I really love the use of white on facades too! I am sort of wishing we had chosen a Surfmist garage door now, but it's too late and DH said no anyway My karma ran over your dogma Re: Dan or Rachelle (or anyone) Photoshop Please!! 10Feb 22, 2009 9:08 am I'm not a big fan of white on facades (I think of dirt ), but the second one looks really good. Quite classic actually, but with a twist with the unusual windows.
Well done again d@n. You are such a massive help to so many people. I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself. Terrence Malick reply 11Feb 22, 2009 9:27 am Hi,
I much prefer the second one, the first looks odd with such a contrast of gutter and fascia. Thanks again to d@n! Built the Atlantique 37 Mk2 with Carlisle Homes - WE'RE IN!!

and i think we need to see it with the actual brick, that one might be making it look nicer than it really is ...

Re: Dan or Rachelle (or anyone) Photoshop Please!! 15Feb 22, 2009 10:59 am Good point Donuts but I can't find the picture of the brick on Boral's site
