  1. Light colors are recommended for small objects: they will visually bring the building closer. Dark colors, on the contrary, remove the object and concentrate on the surrounding environment (even if only the lawn is around).
  2. Bright colors (yellow, orange, red, green) are recommended for use with buildings with simple construction and minimal decor.
  3. It is allowed to use 3 basic colors, 1 of which will be used for decoration. As additional it is possible to use the colors resulting from the mixing of any two basic colors.

When choosing materials for the decoration of a private building, it is necessary to take into account the peculiarities of the object itself, its style and the weather conditions in which the owners live. For example, it is recommended to install sandwiches on top of the foam blocks, which can protect the porous material from moisture well. For regions where temperature differences are considered frequent, it is recommended to buy materials from plastic and polymers. Natural materials are suitable for areas where there is no heavy rain or critical heat. Also it is worth remembering the complexity of care for natural raw materials: wood painting and its processing with an antiseptic will require additional costs after installation. After selecting the appropriate material, you must carry out a design that takes into account the parameters of the individual components and the required number of units. All this will significantly simplify the future construction and eliminate errors in its implementation.
