We make render!

The colored texture render was done today, a bit darker than the swatches we chose from, but I think we like it. You can really judge from these photos as the late afternoon sun skews things a bit. The main color is called Deep Ocean from the ColorBond range, but I think it came out a bit more Navy. The grey feature wall looks quite warm but it's actually a very neutral shade called Shale Grey.

We realised that we didn't specify the color of the wall to the right of the entry door and I think I had imagined it to be blue, with only the feature wall rendered grey. But upon reflection I think they've got it spot-on, the entry would be a too dark if it were blue and there is no way for them to change the render color 200mm in from the edge.

The white window frames really contrast the dark render, it's very crisp and clean, we love it! The splodge on the brick pier is just a flare from the sun, the render is fine.

 

Looks like the tiles also got delivered this week, good to see more movement.
