We picked our final colours a few weeks ago just wanted to post up a render of the facade - hopefully it will inspire other people! The dark grey is Dulux Raku The light grey is Dulux 'Colorbond Dune' The red is Dulux Red Stop Bricks are Austral Nougat (this computer render does not do the bricks justice they are much more silvery than what is shown) Roof tiles are Monier Traditional Profile with Wild Rice.

Who are you building with, you do have a choice of facade.... surely? Re: Our Facade Colours 7Sep 27, 2009 11:19 am Salt&PepperMkII Eljay I love it!! I so wish I had the option for a funky facade!!! My plans were drawn up and a facade was never discussed /quote] What!!!?? Who are you building with, you do have a choice of facade.... surely? Was never brought up with me...and until I started looking around in here and everyone posting comments on their facades I didn't have a clue. Everything was done via the sales guy. Only time I spoke to anyone in the office was when I went in and signed my contract I'm kicking myself now!! Don't think I can change now because it will of course cost lots of $$$. All my finance has been done now, so I can't alter the loan amount!! grrrrr Deposits paid 29/4/09 Land settlement 12/08/09 Build contract signed 24/08/09 Colours done 28/09/09 BLOG-http://www.eljaysbuild.blogspot.com/ Re: Our Facade Colours 8Oct 05, 2009 9:40 pm It looks great! Love the changes you made, making the dark grey area all the around the main bedroom window. Grey colour combo too!! ~W~ Building our forever home - Lilium Estate Clyde - Land due May 2019 Built our first home - Pakenham - 2011 Re: Our Facade Colours 9Oct 05, 2009 9:54 pm *frosty* It looks great! Love the changes you made, making the dark grey area all the around the main bedroom window. Grey colour combo too!! Just so you know Frosty that facade is the Somerton facade. Those high windows open up as well presenting the possibility of having them open at night without anyone having the ability to get in.

What made you decide on this one instead of MW one? Re: Our Facade Colours 15Oct 06, 2009 6:57 pm Zerosignal Just so you know Frosty that facade is the Somerton facade. Those high windows open up as well presenting the possibility of having them open at night without anyone having the ability to get in. Thats a fantastic idea!!

Does the guttering go around the whole house, sitting behind the rendered block bits, or does it stop and start again? ~W~ Building our forever home - Lilium Estate Clyde - Land due May 2019 Built our first home - Pakenham - 2011 Re: Our Facade Colours 17Oct 06, 2009 7:22 pm *frosty* Actually, I have a question. Does the guttering go around the whole house, sitting behind the rendered block bits, or does it stop and start again? Really have no idea how it works I'd guess that it continues in some form behind the wall but cannot confirm that.

And the colours go so well together viewtopic.php?f=31&t=22766 - my build thread! Time waits for no man. Unless that man is Chuck Norris. I'd get the gutters to match your roof and pipes to match the paint - otherwise they become a feature.
