Design Dilemma Flooring Entry

Need help with outdoor entry floor.

6 years ago

We recently started remodeling our home and removed the brick arches from the entry which really opened up the front so you can see the windows and front door. We will be replacing the tile roof in the near future with a charcoal color or dark bronze. The current floor is a stamped concrete in a tumbled pattern that has been painted a red (I guess at one time to match the red tile roof). I am thinking we can do a textured type tile but not sure what color would look best. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Are yo doing tile again for the roof? IMO wait until the roof is done before choosing anything for the entry. You nave to be careful that what you choose works with the roof and the brick. BTW congrats on the new entry.Could you also take a picture from further back to show the whole front of the house.

Where are you located? No chance of a standing seam roof instead?

We are in Montgomery Tx. Here is a photo of the whole front. We will do standing seam on the lower part and shingle on the top part.
