147110 2003-05-24 08:22:00 hi there, this is way off topic here and i am just wondering if anyone can tell me what colours are the " have to have " colours of 2003?

we are painting the building but have come to a complete halt as to what color to paint it.
it has a new Blue tile roof ( almost sky blue) and are now squabbling over the base wall colours.

any one has any ideas? not to outragous please! :D

but i will consider any ideas because at the moment we have none!

the building is a 2 story block motel, and we seem to be renewing almost everything we touch.
this is in a residential area close to central city business's and sports venues.
this probably does not help any but cant be any worse than what we have and they come back on Monday to start painting! (prep and masking first)

thanxs

beetle :D :D :D

Take in a photo and tweak the colours around and find something that suits.

147113 2003-05-24 09:24:00 "Rescue orange" is a good visible color, everyone should spot that no trouble. E.ric (351)

Can't wait to get inside so you don't have to look at the outside.

147116 2003-05-24 09:52:00 may get blinded write? may cause to many accidents from people going blind?
we are close to busy intersection, and it may be a little stressful on the police and ambulance people ...... for here that is...

maybe we should open coffee shop instead?

may need a little more thought on the rescue orange colour thank you for the kind thought....

147118 2003-05-24 09:58:00 Hi Beetle,
Orange & Blue are opposite each other on the colour wheel so they will compliment each other. Have you got a colour wheel? One that shows all the inbetween colours is best. You could also choose monochromatic which is the same colour but different shades.
