Make an Impact! Inspiring Facade Ideas

Whether you love all things contemporary, favour laid-back Hamptons style or want your exterior to blend seamlessly with the landscape, you’ll find exactly what you’re after in our stunning lineup of new facades.
Read on to discover the colours and materials you’ll need to bring your favourite exterior style to life, and which of Carlisle’s latest facades captures the look.
In our Piermont 29 display home at Redstone Estate, earth-drawn hues and natural textures give your home a warm, organic look that blends effortlessly with the landscape.
A nature-inspired exterior
Layering earth-drawn tones and natural textures will give your home a warm, organic look that blends effortlessly with the landscape. You can create this earthy aesthetic with features such as chocolate brickwork, velvety, rendered Hebel, touches of rich timber on your garage and front door, and natural stone accents on pillars.
And don’t forget that all-important element – light! Choose a facade design with generous front windows or a glass front door to enhance the connection between inside and out and fill your interior with natural light.
