Browse Forums Interior Decorating Lounge 1 Sep 08, 2010 12:40 pm Hi michelle Would really love your opinion our external colour scheme. We can't seem to settle on something. Just a bit of background. We are building a ranch style house fully rendered out on our farm. We have got Nathan to do up a couple of colour schemes for us but I am really not sure what is going to work for us. We like the render colour and the white windows and white verandah posts but are stuck on the rest. The roof comes down to shale grey, windspray, surfmist or bushland. (all very different) Externals Roof - shale grey, windspray, surfmist or bushland Gutters - if having a light roof hubby would like contrasting gutters, if going something like bushland or windsprayfor the roof we would keep them the same. Fascia - stowe white Bargeboards - ?? Downpipes - same as roof Eaves - Soffit to underside of Eaves, Verandas & Portico’s - Posts - stowe white Beams / Rafters - ???? Masonry Walls - render Dulux Soft Chamois Windows - white Doors - would love a timber stained door http://a.imageshack.us/img13/9908/001qlf.jpg http://a.imageshack.us/img413/9215/sample6f.jpg Have attached pictures of our house plan and also our 3d visualisation with the bushland roof as this one shows the render colour and white posts etc with this one we think it would only be the bushland colours we would change. Would really appreciate any input. Thanks in advance Re: Would love your advice on our exterior colour scheme 2Sep 08, 2010 7:50 pm I’ll try to look at this tomorrow for you.

I think we finally have decided now on all the colours. Now to organise the interior colour scheme Thought I knew what I wanted but can't believe how many different versions there are of everything. Got Nathan Budde working on our kitchen visualisations so I can see how things are going to turn out a bit better. Thanks again.
