Hi Susan Thanks so much for your advice! The house we are building is on the Gold Coast, Queensland Australia. We are fairly close to a final decision and have our colour selection appointment today (I hope you see this before we go - would love your feedback again) and it's very much in line with your suggestions, which is a relief! We are going with Boral double height stonewash brick with off-white mortar, dune newport cladding and we were going to go with Wallaby roof, gutter, garage door & dune fascia. We had chosen Wallaby (although Basalt was a contender) for the roof and gutters as we'd seen comments that Basalt threw blue tones. Wallaby seemed more of an earthy grey to tie in the stonewash bricks with the dune cladding. We were thinking of dune for the fascia as our skillion roof is reversed, so skillion is angled down at the front of the house, so we thought the dune fascia would separate the roof from the house, so the roof didn't look so overbearing (what do you think?). I've included an image of the elevations so you know what I mean. Also see image of brick with dune, wallaby & basalt swatches. Gutters will be dune, garage door wallaby (to tie in with roof) and window frames we have a choice of the following: Black, White, Precious Silver, Champagne, Surfmist, Monument, Woodland Grey. I'm leaning towards woodland grey to tie in with the Wallaby roof - although have considered Surfmist and Monument. Fingers crossed that you see this before we finalise everything, but if not, I'm feeling a lot better that I'm not too far off a colour scheme that would work well. Thanks again Susan! Nissrine

If you want to change the carousel and have the doors hinged on the carcase you'll also have to add rails under the worktop and either a new bottom shelf or more rails, this is so the doors have something to stop against. At present the exisiting cabinet is bigger than the doors so the doors can fit inside and you don't want this if you want to hinge the doors. For the door hinging if you want to have the doors to bifold like the picture from Sarah L then you will need 2x 170 degree hinges and back plates to hinge the doors on the carcase, then the bi fold hinges and back plates to join the 2 doors together. I see that you also have long bar handles on the drawers so you don't want to hinge the door on that side as the door will get damaged by the drawer handles when its opened.

They do hexagon zellige tiles here so may be worth a few samples https://zellige-tiles.com/zellige-factory-stock/
