[AU, 23/02/2023] As 2023 progresses, homeowners across Australia are embracing a hot new design trend–contrasting outdoor roofing colours. This modern style is transforming the look of homes, creating striking visual effects and adding a unique twist to traditional designs.

Paint colours, coloured roof tiles, and other materials are mixed and matched to create exterior looks that stand out from the crowd. The possibilities are endless, from classic black-and-white combos to bolder two-tone effects of olive green, terracotta, and taupe. Earthy hues, bright shades, and unique textures come together to form one-of-a-kind outdoor makeovers.

Creating Harmonious Yet Practical Combinations

It can be tricky to get the balance right between aesthetic appeal and practicality. While homeowners are encouraged to think outside the box, it’s essential to maintain some sort of practicality.

Durability and Maintenance

Durability is always a crucial factor. Maintaining two sets of roofing materials can be tricky, as one may require more upkeep than the other. Make sure to select durable materials that are easy to maintain and will stand the test of time. Different types of tiles, for example, will require varying levels of cleaning and upkeep.

Temperature Control

Temperature control is a key consideration in selecting construction materials, especially for roofing. Different roofing materials and colours will absorb or reflect heat differently, so it’s essential to keep this in mind when planning a contrasting colour scheme. White and light colours will reflect more heat, while darker tones absorb it.

Cost

The cost of a contrasting outdoor roofing project depends on the materials and colours chosen. While it’s possible to create a stunning look on a budget, it’s important to factor in the cost of any additional materials or labour required. Some materials may be more expensive than others, so working with a professional roofing company like Just Patios will ensure a durable build within the right price range.
