The facade is from 1999 and still has the original scratch render coating. The plaster is only on the ground floor; above the gable and the roof eaves are wooden claddings. Everything is currently white. I want to repaint the wooden cladding white again using Sikkens, and paint the facade yellow with Lotusan from STU. The wooden windows are also white. Is there anywhere to see if this color combination looks good?
What else should be considered, besides of course masking all the windows?
Best regards,

Basically feasible. When applying scratch render, use a thick roller that reaches the deeper textures. Buy paint from a specialist store, not a hardware store!!! They also offer advice there.
However, check with the building authority first to see if yellow is an allowed color for the facade. Some zoning plans specify the color, so I think a quick phone call will provide clarity.
