The outside of the house
Choose the facade: render, brick, stone, timber cladding, vertical timber, concrete, metal panel or a living green wall, with a contrasting base if you like. Choose plain windows, glazing bars or shutters, and a roof that is flat, gable, hip, shed, mansard, butterfly, curved or sawtooth, covered in tile, metal, shingle, membrane or planting.
Add a porch, a balcony, a chimney, dormers, a bay window, a carport, a pergola, a deck, a pool, solar panels or a veranda. Or restyle the whole outside at once in one of the 25 design styles, from Modern Farmhouse and Japandi to New Zealand and Australian Contemporary. The Architectural look adds glass from floor to ceiling, two or three materials and deep roof edges.
