Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 57Jan 19, 2016 11:51 pm I also really like the look of stacked stones but worried it might date? I like the look of tiling to the pillars (or one of them) too. Decisions, decisions Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 58Jan 19, 2016 11:52 pm kylz4 Emmz70 Hah moon shadow was our first choice but ended up to dark for our timber choices so we decided to choose Glenfern instead. Not sure if it's 1500 that's a good price if it is from upgrade viewtopic.php?t=79203 oh too dark, hmmm, i want to go a lighter timber for our 1200 pivot door (like Glendale38's) but then i'm worried how deck will look up against a light door lol. Hurts my brain trying to make it all work! We're getting timber wide pivot door that's why moon shadow didn't blend lol So we needed to go brown tones. Moon shadow doesn't blend with your choices? viewtopic.php?t=79203 Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 59Jan 19, 2016 11:53 pm Emmz70 kylz4 How much extra was it for the aggregate, about $1500? We will see how we go, coloured is only $400 and if we go that way we will go charcoal too. I'm still deciding what to do with facade. I was thinking of upgrading brick to Moonshadow for front only (basically sitting room area and maybe entrance i think bricked) and have render to pillars and around garage. However if i decide to do render after handover then i don't want to pay to upgrade bricks to full front just to cover them later... Good point on render. If your sure you will render choose standard bricks saves you money. I saw a house that was rendered and brick similar to our options, brick pillars and garage, didn't look too bad actually. Learning more to stacked stones for pillars. Wonder which is the cheaper option. Render or stacked stones? viewtopic.php?t=79203 Do you have a photo of the house you saw with brick pillars and garage?
