Eeeek, I have a change of heart! I'm Loving Josh and Jenna (The Block) exterior colours!!! Do you think I could pull off something similar with my home? Our bottom brick section WILL be rendered, so not sure if I can do the weatherboards and render the Same colour, or use Two different tones? Please help me with placement of whites and pales greys for my home? We really love this clean simple look Roof - Gutters – Eaves - Fascia - Weatherboards - Brick Render - Garage Posts - Garage Doors - Balustrade Pales – Balustrade Top Hand Rail – Steps - Window Frames - Front Door - Thank you so much!
Re: Help with pulling off Josh and Jenna (The Block) Exterio 3Aug 30, 2011 1:17 pm Thank you. Yes, I have the name's of the colours (Wattyl Texas Stone and Bridal Waltz); I am actually after help with the placement of the colours on our exterior; hopefully the link to the photo of my house in original post worked. And weather it would *work* on our house and if we need to introduce a third colour Re: Help with pulling off Josh and Jenna (The Block) Exterio 4Sep 03, 2011 12:25 pm You could try putting the white on the lower floor and the pale grey on the upper. The problem I foresee is their home had a lot of decorative details which made the white stand out against the grey. You don't have the same level of "fancy bits" so it would be difficult to achieve the same look. Are you changing the roof or gutter colour?

Yes, I agree, I too was wondering about the level, or lack of 'fanciness' on our house. Hmmm, maybe back to the drawing board. This colour thing is certainly hard! Yes, we will be changing the roof and gutter colour. Re: Help with pulling off Josh and Jenna (The Block) Exterio 6Sep 03, 2011 1:44 pm I think those colours could still work though! What about a light roof (white?) with a really dark grey gutter line. Then you could use grey walls (maybe a little darker than Josh and Jenna's colour) and white window frames to give you a bit of definition. And if you have a nice front door you could paint it the same colour as the gutters to add another feature.
