I'd say, finish whatever the project is you have the wood for and then reassess ♂️ you could have a completely different opinion then

Paint the wall at your peril. You don’t own it so it is not yours to paint

Wait 'til it's up but I'd think cream and safe which is a grey green may be better, however it's not my garden, do what suits you best xxx

Personally I wouldn't put those colours together , I'd do either grey shed n white wall or cream wall n brown shed.

Don't paint the wall, give it a good jet wash and maybe some moss/lichen killer. Build your thing from the wood then have a think about it

Nearly finished our garden - we are looking to put some shrubs down the left hand side of the garden, looking for a shrub that would blossom for more than 2 weeks of the year, either an orange or a bright colour.
