So I am buying somewhere with the worlds tiniest patio. The front door and steps is in this patio (pic enclosed). I'm painting the front door a vibrant pink with grey surround.
I WAS going to paint all the walls a deep maroon on the bottom and a pinky grey above. Every wall apart from the one to the right of the front door as it's too high to paint as I'd want to follow the line at the height of the door which is about 15 feet off the ground.
I'm going to do a vertical garden of pouches and grow flowers/strawberries down the wall as well as very narrow planters all the way round the patio. So the wall to the right of the front door will have green pouches on it, about 15 of them (they're a metre square)
The rear of the patio is the widest, about ten feet wide so I will need to put as narrow a two outdoor sofas as I can find.
I'm not that keen on maroon and a grey pink. I prefer blues and wanted this years colour of the year on the walls (denim blue) but I'm worried that it would look weird with the bright pink front door. I really want the bright pink door.
None of this can be seen from the street so I don't have to worry about others 'taste' or fitting in. Does anyone have any ideas?
