Need help to pretty up the front of our house in NZ
Comments (2)I'd personally pull out the little well thing. It makes me think of dressed-up lawn geese and gnomes. If you have the room and the code ok, plant a tree. A large shade tree would be great near the new deck and would help add some vertical height....See MoreNeed curb appeal and clear path to front door as well as space for teenage den.
Comments (6)Thanks for your reply. Not sure which wall you are referring to? We can't block the bedroom that is next to the front door and we don't want people walking directly into the lounge. We also want the deck to be private. Do you mean to have the gate and doorbell outside in the open?...See MoreHelp for front door colour please. Yellow brick, grey blue windows
Comments (5)The front door is around the other side by the way! The windows are aluminium so cannot be changed. It is all rather ugly at the moment....See MoreHelp us with our Exterior Front Entry!
Comments (4)Hi Rachael, Your asymmetrical house form is a very strong visual element and sits very well in this bold and rugged landscape. On the other side of the house from the entry door, the windows and doors are grouped and aligned to create a secondary relationship between them, which pleases the eye and works within the strong form. On the side with the entrance door, this doesn't happen. The scattered size and positioning of the woodstore, windows and doors do not work together to lead the eye to any particular place, nor do they relate to the form of the house. As a starting point, something to draw the eye to the entrance to invite people in will create a secondary focus. Because the house is a very strong form, you want to work with it or complement it, not try to create something that tries to outdo it. You also want something large enough to provide shelter both to keep people from the weather and to make it seem visually welcoming. You have a few materials already in this building, timber and stone, that you can use that will provide a contrast to the corrugate wall but will also make connections with the other parts of the building, and make the shelter become part of the whole rather than look like an afterthought. I would look at creating a porch form with enough visual strength to draw the eye and also try to tie in a few other elements to reduce the scattered look....See MoreC P
