Colour Schemes - External

Ok folks need some opinions on colours...

The external components that need to be worked out are:
  • Garage Door
  • Bricks
  • Colourbond roof and guttering
  • Paneling / Render colours
  • Front door 
  • Window frames


On the plans shown, the front and front door side of the house are rendered.  The alfresco and suspended parts of the house are paneling and the remainder is brick.  All of the roof is colourbond and the alfresco has glass and aluminum around the edge of it.

The first thing to be noted is that some of these components have limited colour options, most notably the garage doors.  Below are the narrowed down selections.

                                                         

Garage Door - http://www.dynamicdoorservice.com.au/
Door Type:  Sectional Overhead
Style: Slim-line
Colours: dune, woodland grey or surfmist


Bricks - http://www.boral.com.au or http://www.pghclay.com.au/

Blue Steel Flash would be No 1 and Ascot No 2 at this stage subject to seeing how it matches with other colours and what it looks like in a physical sample.

 
Roof and Guttering -  http://www.colorbond.com/
We want to go with a lighter colour for the roof and it will be colourbond not tile.


 
Render, Paneling & Window Frame Colours - These will be indicated by the colours above for bricks, garage and roof but we are inclined towards either blue greys or browns and creams.

Front Door - This is already chosen as per the image shown.  It will be wood stained and is 1200mm wide.
