Purple welcome

Two years ago, Brent and Diane's villa was in desperate need of a makeover. Diane picked out the colours and Brent said "if you want me to paint it, we're having feature walls".

The weather boards are now finished in Resene Iron and the feature walls in Resene Shuttle Grey, which is also used on the window sill edges and the top of the ballast rails. The front fence and garage is in Resene Grey Chateau, with a lick of Resene Alabaster around the windows for good measure. After much deliberation (and threats) Resene Violent Violet was chosen for the front door and planter boxes at the back.

Living on quite a busy street they've had many compliments and strangers knocking on the door asking for the colours used.
