At 123 Projects we know the outside of your home is what defines your house from others on the street. For inspiration on boosting your home’s curb appeal and outdoor living areas, consider these four ideas.
Adding a stylish overhang above your front door adds shelter from the sun and rain, plus character to the front of your house. You can also change your roofline, beef up pillars or add a deck.
Homes that open fully to outdoor areas get better airflow and more usable living space. It’s a chance to extend your living space and add architectural interest to your home’s exterior.
A darker colour can make a small, plain house look larger and more architecturally interesting. Traditional homes feel less stuffy with a coat of matte black or charcoal paint.
New cladding can breathe fresh life into your exterior. Brick or stone veneer adds substance to the front of your home, or weatherboard over cement sheeting. Tongue and groove cedar under an overhang can lift a deck to a new level.

Some do, depending on the scope. Changing your roofline or adding a deck can trigger approval requirements, while a colour change or new cladding usually doesn’t. That’s worth checking with your certifier or council early, it’s outside what we manage directly.
Often it’s a new colour palette or updated cladding, both make a big visual difference without the structural cost of changing the roofline or adding a deck.
Yes, many of our clients do both at once, especially if trades and scaffolding are already on site.
