I don’t have the Parbury Chocolatte….but looking at the other 2, I would say it will look great.
No I don’t think the Pearl Bisque is too shiny, it’s a very nice colour. Good selections for your kitchen! My questions are these: - are the colours too boring? I am going for classic neutral look No they are the neutral you are looking for, and provides a perfect blank canvas for anything else! - Is the Pearl Bisque too shiny? No……it’s a gorgeous colour! - Is the Slate Grey roof too light? - It is a Californian Bungalow façade Not sure how light the slate grey is, but I’m assuming light. Ok…..I think what you have pick is very good. Love your brick. By the way, its normal to start doubting yourself at this stage, but it all looks good to me. Your internal colours are very complementary. Well done!!!!
