Colour questions?

Wow dianaos... I started putting your colours together and I'm impressed with how they are looking!
I'm struggling with your facade though. Any chance you can load more of the elevations up for me just to be sure.
Good work on posting by the way I had to alter the 2 photos slightly but you did good!!!

Hi Michelle,
The street elevation is the North elevation with the Matrix cladding and the deck. The front entrance door is actually on the side elevation (East elevation) The other two elevations have very few windows in them (one is west and the other is south, so are not really good for heating and cooling, so I have tried to keep windows to a minimum).

The matrix cladding will be the external wall of the verandah. The render will be on the external wall of the Family/Meals room and Home Theatre room on the north elevation and wrapping around to the front entrance and Bedroom on the East elevation. This will be in Dulux Lexicon. The portico will be rendered in the Dulux Klavier. (top and side pier)

There will also be stainless steel rain chains for the overflow of the box gutters on the deck and near the portico. all remaining downpipes will be colorbond monument.

I am not sure whether I should have Monument gutters and fascias or go for night sky (Black).

I will include the floorplan so you can get an idea. The central courtyard will have a pergola. The balcony railings, posts, timber screens at end of the balcony and the pergola will all be painted the same colour as the matrix cladding, Dulux Klavier. The decking will be merbau which is just oiled (no stain) and the ceiling of the verandah will be pine lined and stained to match the merbau. I would prefer not to make the balcony stand out but would like it to blend in with the facade so that you almost don't see it.

I am trying not to have too many colours, but like the contrast between the dark and the light. I had originally selected Dulux domino but thought this clashed with the colorbond monument, so changed it to the Dulux Klavier. I also had the windows in colorbond monument but thought black might stand out better with the grey bricks.




I hope this all makes sense.

Thanks
Diana
