Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Aug 21, 2014 11:34 am Hi All, New to this page, but loving all the help and advice! We are about to start building our home (been a long wait) We have been and done our colour selection but i have struggled with picturing the overall exterior. We have chosen the Austral bricks in 'Truffle' as they are relatively new i would love to see if any one has used them and if they have any pics to share. WE have gone with a monument colourbond roof and gutters with Evening haze facia. There will also be some render to the portico and around the garage in a browny/grey with some timer work and a timber look garage door (also unsure on colour. Cedar, Jarrah or Walnut) Thanks Re: Has anyone used the Austral bricks in Truffle? 2Aug 21, 2014 2:08 pm Hi, welcome! We just finished and also used truffle except. Sorry not exactly the colour combinations you were after but mine is spouting and fascia in monument, downpipes, windows are all jasper with black roof tiles and white duck and mud pack for the two rendering. But truffle is a gorgeous color! I loved it Second Build, this time with Carlisle 2016, can't wait!

Re: Has anyone used the Austral bricks in Truffle? 6Aug 29, 2014 3:49 pm Hi Troyziee, Good luck with your colour selection. Let me know what you decide on for the bricks. We went to see our builder yesterday to sign off on all our selections still not locked in so of course im still questioning our choice.... think the darker brick does give a nice street appeal our neighbours on either side have gone light so think it is our best choice. Not Sure when all will start for us at this stage our builders are super busy so putting any new builds slightly behind the normal schedule. If I can figure out how to upload pics I will for sure.
