It really seems like it's coming together now, well done. I would do the render white to show off how sharp everything is and the contrast between the window frames, aluminium capping, roof tiles and rainwater plastics. I would do the cladding vertical so you don't get water sitting and rotting on the horizontals.

Because of all the sun we get we don’t want brilliant white as it’s blinding, we will definitely do some sort of off white tint of cream/grey maybe. I wanted vertical cladding but the wife and instagram out voted me 😂

Wow! Really starting to see your vision come together now. Windows look outstanding. Won't be short of natural light at all. Top job, both ❤

Thank you mark, we are both very tired from the last year and cannot wait for the day we can sit down and just do nothing for the evening in our finished house 😅

Wow 🤩 the windows and sliding doors really finish it off and bring in so much light. I prefer the 2nd (middle) pic for the window seat idea👌🏻

Its coming on so well now... what a difference with the windows. BTW love the window seat idea with the books underneath... that will be a lovely place to chill out with a book or on a laptop ...

Hi both. Really impressed with the quality of the render , as for colour maybe mid grey could look well with the windows and form a contrast with the cladding . Kind regards as always
