I decided to remove the two “strait trallin” arches or arbours or whatever they are lol because with the roof's on it started to look over cluttered. And, I think for me that’s a good thing to keep in mind as I'm building. If I've made something I like but it doesn't go with the overall theme or maybe even will make my upload pics look odd just take it out and use that idea on a different build at a later date.

I also took out the llama topiary’s and added a small back porch and a door out into the back garden. As I wasn't thinking about this while doing landscaping haha!

I've used three different sized windows but they are all the same kind to give it more cohesive look.
The Lattice style roofing I did over the patio was done in a chevron pattern instead of doing squares or diamonds. I think it makes it look a bit more interesting. For the roofing on the house I used pitched roof with white trim to blend with the rest of the white I used in the columns and trim around the lattice roof. I extended a pitched roof from the main roof to over part up the upstairs patio to add a bit more height to the side of the build. I also think the chimney stack achieves the same thing on the other side of the build. I added the fossil pillars to add a bit of texture and interest to parts of the exterior.

I chose to use 2 different kinds of light on the exterior of the build for night time lighting and to break up some of the siding. The siding was mixed with a white textured wall covering to the smaller bit in the front.

Thanks for the fun practice @Cbear13 and @crysk :)
