What is cheaper - painted brick/brick or stucco/brick?
Comments (2)It could be a mortar wash and not stucco. Or it could be Boral Pastel Cote brick. Here is a thread with my mortar washing. Search BAH with "mortar wash" and you may get other threads. Also search "pastel cote." Here is a link that might be useful: Another thread...See MoreExterior color ideas (Brick, Stucco, Roof)
Comments (9)"...Also we are a bit concerned that the roof may be a bit too encompassing..." You are right! Fortunately, we humans never seen buildings in 2-D elevations, such as depicted on drawings. The purpose of these drawings is convey needed information about the construction of a building, and not to illustrate what a building will actually look like in 3-D. For that, perspectives are necessary. So your huge roof will not look as huge and overbearing as it appears on the elevations. But it will dwarf your house and dominate your view of the house. Unfortunately, this is a common occurance when a drafter or CAD operator designs a house by unilaterally focusing on a floor plan, and thereafter simply plopping roof trusses on the walls of the floorplan. Looking at your roof plan, and floor plan outline, there's a quick and easy approach for a completely different roofing scheme which would greatly reduce your roof massing, but it requires eliminating or changing the roof over what I assume is a back porch. I hope natural light in the interiors of your house is not a major criterion, since you appear to have a very large, deep house, almost square in shape. It's going to be dark in there, regardless of your orientation....See MoreWhat color to paint exterior? Thinking white on white, painted brick.
Comments (2)Seems a shame to paint that brick. Maybe one of the photoshop gurus can do a mockup for you of some color options. I'm no expert, but this seems craftsman-esque, which are always so rich in color and contrast. Good luck with your decision....See MorePaint colors/curb appeal help for brick + stucco split level
Comments (27)The lime wash on the brick will create a nice background for new plant materials. Just create curved maybe kidney shaped bed large on ends keeping plant materials a good 12-14” from house. This leaves room for air circulation and growth. Then the coordinating white for remaining siding of house keeps painting easier. You need a distinctive “gate-type” entry to porch to welcome visitors and show them in. Good Feng Shui when front door isn’t very visible from front area. It also broadens look of house. This has a lot of great potential. You can paint the peak above brick in front the Dried Thyme or white from brick. Whichever appeals more. The Red Barn or deep red/orange color compliments the roof and can be used for trim detail if desired. Just pick deep color hat works with roof. If you plan to replace roof, black is a good neutral color too. Goes with any roof. With lime wash any roof color will work. Just think total plan through so in the end you have a cohesive look. It’s going to be amazing. Take lots of pictures now from all angles. Then you will have great “before” pics to post for us with great “after” photos!...See Morerinked
