Choosing Brick Colours

So we have been trying to get some ideas for brick colours and we found looking at these in Hopetoun Interiors vs. seeing them outside under the sun they look completely different. Our first bricks that we liked at Hopetoun turned out to be much to light for our liking. We are building from the prestige range so we have the Austral series to choose from. Note that the selection of bricks from Austral is different from state to state.

We are initially looking at dark brown styles; we want to avoid reds and pinks if we can in the brick. Some initial bricks that we like are; Access Chestnut, Homestead Blackwood, Harvest Buckwheat, Elements Nickel and Urban One Chocolate. Currently Homestead Blackwood is on top, but we are not 100% on this yet.

We started to collect a number of photos as can be seen below of various bricks from many sources and thought it may help some people on their brick colour selection choices. Enjoy!
