Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Sep 24, 2017 7:48 pm Hi, We are really second guessing our colour choices for our house and would love some feedback/ ideas. Currently we have * Harvest Gold bricks with grey motar * Jasper roof and gutters * Paperbark fascia and window frames * Terrain garage doors Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ We are starting to think that black window frames and sliding doors would look nicer, but can't agree on roof colour. I think that monument would be better, dh thinks it would be fine to stick with jasper TIA Re: Brick, colorbond, window frame help 3Sep 25, 2017 7:07 pm It sounds like you have a heap of different colours going on... I'd be thinking about keeping the Jasper (Monument has been done to death in my honest opinion), and having Jasper in the window frames and fascias as well, if they can do that colour? I'd leave out the paperbark, myself, unless you want really strong contrast lines? It's hard to help as we can't know what look you're going for - any inspiration pictures that you liked? What interior colour scheme are you looking at? The window frames need to go with that as well. Re: Brick, colorbond, window frame help 4Sep 25, 2017 8:15 pm thanks for your thoughts - did think that there were lots of colours. Bricks and colours is something we have struggled with massively! Re: Brick, colorbond, window frame help 5Sep 25, 2017 9:11 pm Have you thought of pairing Jasper roof with Dune fascias, gutters and window frames, and having the terrain as a statement on the garage? Dune would probably go better on your interior colour scheme, when viewed from inside. And also with the grey mortar. Have you used the 'Colorbond visualiser' ? That helps heaps, and they have brick colours for you to put on the walls, so you can get an idea... Its the flashing and is normal. Some builders cover them up others just leave them handing. You can cover it up with an aluminium bracket or ask the builder. 7 8411 Thanks Pulse, thats really helpful and very much appreciated.
