Hi, I know there are so many things to take into account and it's hard to get perspective from a photo. The white you can see is an extension with building paper, and the red is the existing building which is two story. The exterior is wide weatherboard planking, the windows are silver aluminium with very little trim. The doors in the front of the picture are French doors from bedrooms that will open to an enclosed courtyard ( yet to be built of course) The roof will be a light grey/brown but you won't see it much because of the flat roof style. There will be decking and ballustrades covering half of the new extension.

I'd match the white of the door trim and baseboards.

New house build.I need a idea for colour matching trim colour on my house. Out side is corrogated iron walls ánd roof in greyfriars,300mm square posts,front and back are in black,inside is spanish white,trim,walls and ceiling in semi gloss. What I am looking for is a colour for the barge boards,front and rear only,rear wood door surround,internal doors (only two,bedroom and bathroom). Was thinking a gutsy orange? Awaiting your views/thoughts

Hi Linda. The Resene Merino on the walls may make the trims possibly look more creamy. If you intend to paint your trims, doors etc, I usually tell people to use a stark white like Resene Alabaster because if you change your wall colour again at a later date it will still look good. If you know the trim colour let me know. The inspiration picture of white works well because it is broken up by lots of natural textures and materials.
