Browse Forums Interior Decorating Lounge 1 Nov 06, 2008 10:37 pm Hello, Michelle, just wondering if you would be able to help me with a few suggestions for an exterior render colour for our new house that has a Jasper Colorbond roof and we have window frames that are 'stone beige'. Would be looking at the Dulux range preferably.
I am also wondering whether I should be careful as to colour choice for our kitchen that is going to have a blackbutt timber floor throughout. What kitchen colours do you know compliment timber best? We are going to go for stone benchtops and either laminate/2 pac for kitchen cupboards and island bench.

Thank you, Michelle Hi Michelle, Blackbutt is such a nice colour for the floor and would work well with most colours for the kitchen. Just to give you an idea of what I have selected for my kitchen with blackbutt flooring...I'm having white 2 pac cupboards , white granite benchtops with a feature panel of American Walnut. Splashback will most like be a deep red. Hope this helps Mrs B Re: Exterior paint & Kitchen Colour 4Nov 07, 2008 2:59 pm Hi Michelle….good name there!
I’m a little busy at the moment so I will try and get to your question over the weekend. Are you able to post a link or photo of your home and façade?

Thank you. Jasper roof 6Nov 07, 2008 11:33 pm Hello, Michelle, I have posted some photos for you of facade (sorry if some double ups) and our house plan. As in my last post, just wanting some advice on render colour to tie in with Jasper roof and 'stone beige' window trims.
I have included a photo of view through stacker doors from our kitchen which is just beautiful. I wondered whether you may have any suggestions for kitchen colours as this will be the hub of our house. We are open to using stone/2 pac or laminate/stone etc - material not an issue - just colour. We are having a blackbutt timber flooring throughout the living whole of the kitchen and living area.

Very nice choice - so is bushland grey, not really grey as it does come across as more of a beige colour doesn't it? I hope that is not my third blonde moment for the day asking that by the way! ha ha
Thanks heaps, Shel Re: Exterior paint & Kitchen Colour 9Nov 08, 2008 9:04 pm Shel... i just have to for all the storage and cupboards! Fantastic.(I'm really into cupboards... I have a disorder. )
Great practical house plan. Jo I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself.

Very nice choice - so is bushland grey, not really grey as it does come across as more of a beige colour doesn't it? Sorry my mistake. You're correct...there's no 'grey' in it. I was getting confused with woodland grey...

But good work Dan!

Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com Re: Exterior paint & Kitchen Colour 14Nov 09, 2008 12:06 pm Hello, Michelle and Dan. Thank you both.
The colour flow I am going for is natural beiges/stone/light chocolate and some white to offset the beige colours. Michelle, I really like the natural stone and warm neutral (is that the name of the paint colour?) Dan, would you be kind enough to show the house done in the warm neutral colour as well? I would like the house to have a classic warm feel to it. Initially I was going to go for all white walls, but wonder now whether it may be an idea to go for 1/4 strength of hogs bristle or the like. Do you know of any nice wall colours, Michelle? Am also thinking it may be better to stay with white for the kitchen with the timber floor. Thanks very much Michelle Re: Exterior paint & Kitchen Colour 16Nov 09, 2008 12:45 pm Michelle, I have posted colours of tiles I am considering so you can see what colours I am heading towards. Finding colour really difficult to know what goes with what etc - if you have any input that would be wonderful. Thanking you again,
