The upstairs soffit appears to be dark to match the cladding, is this the case or is it simply shadow? We are building in Tauranga with an exposed concrete block basement and a charcoal 1st floor level which overhangs the basement garage ( similar to the photo). We are high up on a hill so our cladding runs horizontally to lower the house which sits on the side of a steep hill. Wondering whether to have a dark soffit to enhance that dramatic dark top storey or whether to go off white for for light. We have floor to ceiling windows and wide soffits. Any help or thoughts?
