Staff Cecil Lee Posted May 18, 2016 Staff Share Posted May 18, 2016 In my opinion:1. The wall colours are also often considered.1.1. Thus, if the exterior walls are white in colour; the metal roofing is often grey / silver tone.1.2. If?ceramic / clay or terracotta tiles are used; often:1.2.1 If the tiles are grey?in colour then preferably the exterior walls should be white.1.2.2. If the tiles are clay or orange looking then there is lots of flexibility to use any colour for the exterior wall.1.2.3. Avoid using blue coloured ceramic or terracotta tiles for the roofing - if possible. But if this is used; then the exterior wall colour should preferably be white.1.2.4. In asia, it is also common to see ceramic / clay or terracotta tiles in maroon (kidney red) and even green in colour. But such colours are used less in other countries.
