We intend to have the outside of our house painted and I just can't make my mind up.
We are in a semidetached. I don't think I want a cream colour as they seem to yellow over time and don't want pure brilliant white as that just seems too stark.
So what are my options, really?
Should I paint it the same colour as my neighbour? They have this paint though it looks much paler on the building. www.diy.com/nav/decor/paint/exterior-paint/natural-brown-cream/masonry-paints/5l/Dulux-Weathershield-Textured-Masonry-Paint-Gardenia-5L-9190580
I suppose I am looking for some shade of off white.
So here's an appeal to F & B experts. What would be good in F & B? The front of our house faces east. The bottom third of the house is red brick and the rest is rendered.
The front door is painted in F & B French Gray which I love though I am bitterly disappointed that it has faded so much. Will probably repaint it in this or a blue.
Door furniture is currently brass though I am thinking of changing to chrome/silver or is this passé?
