So much can happen on an exterior...trim, exposed rafters, doors, windows, siding, stone, brick, stucco, roofing, gutters and downspouts....hire an architect or a design/build firm to help answer these questions prior to building....like hiring an interior designer for help with furniture, these professionals will help decide the style of the exterior of the house and how that style interacts with the function of the house.

Hi Puspa, Here are some ways in which you may convert an existing wall into a brick wall - 1] If you are alright with replacing the existing wall entirely, then terracotta bricks are your answer. A terracotta brick wall gives a rustic buy neat finish as compared to the conventional brick masonry. However, this would require major civil work. 2] Another way is to strip the existing wall of its plaster and expose the underlying masonry. You can protect this masonry with a lacquer coating (your painter will help you with that). However, this again required some amount of civil work. 3] If you want to work with the existing wall without breaking it, opt for cladding materials. You may go for brick like cladding materials like terracotta wall cladding. These come in a variety of colours and are easy to apply and maintain. They come for both interior and exterior applications. 4] Punning is another way of achieving the desired look on a wall. The painter or false ceiling guy can help you with this task. Basically he will pun the wall in pop and engrave grout lines so as to give it a brick wall look. 5] Lastly, you may go for brickwork looking wall paper or a 3d panel. While a wallpaper would look flat and unconvincing, a 3d panel would do the trick. You can either paint on the 3d panel or leave it as is. As far as procuring items locally is concerned, I am sure a local vendor or contractor will guide you through. Regards, RnD Atelier Nagpur

These are generally cladding materials cut to size and clad on the walls, So its easier to create the patterns. if you want to do the same in plaster, its going to take more work and measuring. You could do it with a laser level! and 2nd design always!

Okay, Green and yellow together are popping too much , even if its a personal choice go for one of these colours (yellow or green) and preferably lighter shades. The red colour on the left also looks too off and can be avoided. Too much mustard in base makes it look dull. What you can do is go for more grey/white as base colour,mustard as filler and brown/dark grey as a bold colour and a yellow/green as popping colour as highligter. Some observations that you might try for the elevation. 1.Do not go for more than 4 colours 2.Try keeping your boundary wall to not merge too much with the house.(Especially the center part base and boundary wall) 3.Lighter colours on horizontally prominent areas(for example the base) and bold colors on vertical elements(for example the element on your right side that is in white color). 4. The central brown element with window can be made better with grooves in different color like brown with gold strip and giving the base a single color (that abrupt green is looking weird). For example, imagine that element in grey on white base or vice verca. You can also explore cladding materials in market for that center and get some good antique/stone or modern jaali finish as per your personal choice. 5.The Jaali on left is white and the base visible behind is also a light colour.Try to go for dark and light combination(either base dark or jaali, suggesting to keep base light and jaali dark so that sun shadows created patterns are visible).
