zaphod Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 The problem is its going to look cruddy if it gets streaked with mildew and the paint fades over time. I think you'd have to go with a less saturated color. I'm kind of partial to very light green, like you see in scandinavia but also the deep south. Or a pinkish color, though pink is kinda ugly. Maybe Charleston, SC could be a reasonable example of adding color: Â https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Quarter_(Charleston,_South_Carolina) Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrel Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 This is all concrete and steel, right? At least it'll be around in a few years and not falling apart... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbigtex56 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 It looked better before the brick went up,  when it was covered with those aqua and yellow sheathing and insulation panels (or whatever they were). Now I look at it and just want to take a nap.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
