Dan and New Home Visual has been great and super fast with each list of changes highly recommend him! Below are the option my wife and I came up with with the only real further change would be to possibly change the portico pillars to be part render pillar then timber post to match the front door.

We'll have a think about the timber garage door just not sure if will be too much timber as is a 5.5m door Re: Exterior colour advice - with visuals from Dan 6Jan 24, 2014 9:35 pm IMO definitely not enough contrast in the first one.
