Pettiness over red house

[king1]

I think it should be made illegal to paint houses neutral colours....

The latest craze seems to be black houses. We live in rural North Taranaki and the houses and sheds, barns and other buildings I've seen popping up on lifestyle properties both locally and into the Waikato over the past few years are commonly clad and roofed in black. Our own 9x9m shed has a 'Scoria' red roof and heats up pretty well in the summer so imagine a black building would be stiffling.

will be interesting to see how much fading occurs as well with these dark colours
