Colour
- A colour schedule containing samples of external colours is to be provided to Camden Council when applying for development consent.
- Bolder, brighter, deeper shades of colour on feature areas of the building is encouraged provided they are in keeping with the overall colour scheme of the dwelling and do not detract from the streetscape.
Walls
- External walls of all dwellings are to be constructed of;
- face or rendered brickwork,
- stone,
- rendered concrete blocks,
- glass, or
- lightweight materials such as fibre cement or seamless, textured and coated materials.
- The use of lightweight materials is only permitted on upper-storey walls and is to be constructed of fibre cement or other seamless, textured, coated materials.
- Dwellings are to be finished in earthy colours that blend with the natural surrounds. Bold contrasting colours are to be avoided, so as not to detract from the natural setting of the development.
Roofs
- Roofs are to be constructed of pre-painted steel sheet, tiles or slate.
- Roofs are to consist of a single colour and material.
- Highly reflective roofing materials (such as uncoated zincalume) are not permitted as the reflective qualities can impact upon neighbouring allotments and the surrounding area.
- A colour schedule containing samples of roof colours is to accompany the Development Application for building.
- The colour of roofing, whether tiles or pre-painted sheet steel, is to be generally consistent with the natural surrounds and recessive in tone
