What are your favourite colours?
I will rephrase that.
If you were building a new home, what colours would you choose?
Unlike buying a dress, or pair of pants, building a new home can really stress you out when it comes to picking a roof colour, a wall colour, what window colour should I go with.... that is only the beginning. The whole look of your new Integrity Home, begins with the colours you choose, and the style of the facade.
There are many styles from by-gone era's that we could speak of, but generally the style of our Integrity New Homes design library fit into 3 categories - Modern/Contemporary, Country/Classic and Coastal Style.
Of course, looking at those three categories, you will immediately realise that the Colour Palette for each can be the same, same but different.
Great! Let's move onto what colour works in different areas of Australia. With varying earth colours covering every natural hue, we need to build our homes to suit the area we are building.
Look around the neighbourhood of where you are about to live and notice the architecture, the colours and finishes of the homes. Of course, you don't have to do exactly as the neighbours do, but you will get a feel as to what the vibe is and what colours you like or don't like; what will most probably work well, and what won't.
