Would love some inspiration on what colour to do with Shale Grey roof

[Guest]

Hi, I would love some help! We are building and Shale Grey Colorbond roof is on & Weatherboards this week, I was thinking painting in Dulux Spanish Olive but after a sample I'm not so sure.

Would love some inspiration on what colour to do with Shale Grey roof.

Please and Thank you

I have Char grey weatherboards & a windspray roof. I know it's not the same combo that your looking at, but Char grey & Spanish olive are very similar & I thought it might help you to be able to visualise it actually on a house.

I have a shake grey roof and I will be painting the cladding terrace white with lexicon quarter window trims.

Shale grey roof and hammer grey timber boards.

If you are unshore about the Spanish olive. You could go a different way and use Dulux winter fog on walls outside. And then adding white for trims in Vivid White. But keep gutters in your roof colour shale grey. As makes house look taller.

Just a idear. Blends in with the garden Surroundings really well and is something different. That looks great.

Always good to have more then 2 colours.



Don't miss: Has anyone used Shale Grey or Tranquil Retreat?

I was struggling so much with making the right decision on the exterior colours - until I saw the cover of one of the Dulux Exterior paint brochures - copied it all apart from the front door colour - our build is still in progress so cladding not painted yet - but went with Terrace White for the cladding.
