Yup, same builder.
To be fair he's not said the paint idea is impossible, just that it's 'hard' and that the matt will not be as resilient as gloss.
It's possible that the fancy paint versions you've posted were outsourced for finishing. It's also possible that I've been quoted a price for the frame+paint and he's implying I should keep it simple to avoid a big hike in price and lead time. I'm assuming that's it.
Its the La Vie Claire colours.
Anyway I've shared the ideas bit rychtarski but he's not feeling it - sounds like I'm too adventurous. He suggests matt paint is hard, gloss stronger, and the angled detail is hard to do.
I'm considering keeping it simple with a really dark charcoal-ish grey, gloss, with a colour detail on the lettering.
