What are these bricks and best paint colour to match?

Can you tell me what these 1980 bricks are?

They have a glass fleck in them.


Also, wanting to update the mission brown paint on exterior of the house and roof, any modern colour suggestions welcome.

Would black to be contrasting?

    I would get samples of Colorbond Jasper and Colorbond Monument for starters to see how they compare in different light conditions against your brickwork. The blacker paints tend to be more susceptible to long term UV and heat damage so I would avoid a true black.

    Best of luck with your painting,

    Hi Leonie!
    Will you be changing the roller doors? Are they brown, I can’t quite tell from the pic but a warm grey could look lovely.

    Dr Retro House Calls, funny as I have a sample of monument here. Interesting about true black.

    Girlguides I have also been playing around the idea of ironstone on the garage doors.

    Attic Building Design you're right, the picture doesn't quite show it, they are mission brown, thinking of a grey/black. It's such a huge decision, hubby and I can only agree with no cream or green.
