How To Do Home Exterior Decoration

What will be your situation if you buy a building, renovated it into a dream property, and then come the local city board telling that the building is “too colorful” and demands you to repaint the whole of the building? Embarrassed! This is something that happened in Germany when a man was all set to bring up his dream home. If a colorful home exterior can cause such a hue and cry what will houses with stranger exteriors bring?
