1970s contemporary needs exterior facelift
7 years ago
I love the interior of my 1970s contemporary, but the exterior really depresses me.
It’s not warm, friendly or inviting. I’ve always had an issue with the super asymmetrical windows and don’t like the color of the house or roof. Lucky me, the house needs both new windows and a new roof. The garage doors are also on their last legs.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I am hoping to work with the contemporary vibe and not against it.
