Re: Colour questions? 123Feb 01, 2017 12:50 pm Michelle Hi surja, lets talk interior first. This really comes down to the size of the rooms, how high the ceilings are and the style you are going for. Typically though, there is no reason why you can't have both. The important thing is to get the balance right if you decide to mix dark and light together. Whites and off whites are very popular, when using these colours you basically have a blank canvas to work with to introduce other colours by way of furnishings. http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu98/bellao4/homeonesig_2.jpg Email me for a quote to today - michelle@denovoconcepts.com loving these photos ! such aesthetic !

Think it goes well with the Monument as it looks silver from some angles but then has a warm tint to it from others to break up our neutral theme.

We have an idea of colour scheme, it's just what to put where?! Our house will look something like this (still waiting on working drawings), but without the render on the balcony. We can choose to have cladding wherever we wish but are thinking we will clad the top half of the front facade. And we can't decide whether to moroka the portico or garage or neither, or use a second feature brick. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Colour selections we are thinking of- Main brick austral chiffon (darker one) and potential feature brick silver Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Cladding- taubmans ashen mist Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Moroka- taubmans gravel Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ White windows and either timbercoat merbau garage door or surfmist (again undecided).

Then the wall over the garage in 2 shades lighter?? Always remember landscaping when pulling your colours together. This is a mock up I did for a client to show him what a difference it makes adding extras.

We are building the house below: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ We have similar bricks to this picture (actually we have Austral Metallix Bronze), the same wood features and the column (2) is the same colour ("Taubmans Zelda"). We have changed the stria cladding (2nd floor) to the Austral Metallix Bronze bricks. For the matrix cladding on the verandah we have selected "Taubmans Dune" - the colour in this picture is "Taubmans Wooloware" Given we have bricks upstairs I'm really worried the Dune and Zelda will look terrible...... What do you think?? Any suggestions would be fantastic Thankyou!!

Any suggestions would be fantastic Thankyou!! Hey fizzed. This one Just popped up on my tapatalk feed. What if you rendered the top brick work to look like the cladding section and break up the brick. The other design feature you miss is the slight depth change between brick and cladding, but then again it's more about colour and balance. I've seen houses with partially rendered areas and it works really well. Well that's my 2c and btw the kellyville Balmoral facade is very nice.
