When it comes to your home, the front facade and entrance are the place where the wow factor needs to start.

Colour

Choose a colour palette that provides maximum impact. Whether you want something clean and crisp or bright and bold, don’t forget to consider every aspect of your exterior, including walls, gutters, fascia, window trims and doors.

Materials

From walls to windows, choosing materials for your home’s exterior should take function into consideration aside from aesthetics. For example, fibre cement cladding is much more durable than timber.

Lighting

A good lighting plan is essential for any welcoming exterior. Lighting is a great way to add a pop of colour or interesting texture to your home, such as gold sconces. Placing a spotlight on your house number is another way to add some charm.

Porch

If your home has a porch, this is the perfect spot to make a welcoming impact even before anyone enters your home. Playful tiles are the perfect solution to a plain concrete porch, while staining or replacing old timber planks can give your entryway new life.

Finishing touches

Adding a touch of green always makes a home feel more warm and a chance to add a statement to a minimalist exterior. Your builder should be able to give you ideas on how to maximise your landscape. For an extra bit of charm, consider adding a custom porch swing or built-in seating.
