Facade Fail

Wood Columns….

Stone Columns…..

Brickwork……

Painted Board……

Flat Roof…….

Pitched Tile Roof……

This House looks like it’s in a competition to get as many different materials in the facade.

It’s a display home……….in an attempt to make it look different it just look a confused mess!

What’s The Side View Of Your House?


When most people look at a display home the two first considerations are:

  1. The Floor Plan.
  2. The Front Elevation. (Like the impressive facade in this photo)

Sometimes that works fine when all the houses are in a line, and the same size…….but what about when the side of the house is on show?

For example:

  • Houses on corner blocks.
  • Double storey houses next to single storey houses.
  • Houses on large blocks.

The photo on the left shows the side view of the house, in the top photo, with the impressive facade.

Not only is this a lot less impressive……but as it is the view from the main road its the first impression of the house any visitor gets.

Don’t forget to think about how the sides of a house look when you are looking to build a new house!
