paslater I love these colors, too! I wish I could see the house on a cloudy or rainy day. I live in Seattle and am wondering if these colors would work here. Also am wondering if I can match the paint in Sherman Williams...

Jill Asher craft_design_studio - thank you for the information. We are considering repainting our exterior, and I absolutely LOVE the colors you selected for this home.

Becky Harris Wow, I love it! Is that Colorado? Is it a new home or a renovation? Either way, I'm impressed - it has the double height shotgun shack mining town vernacular going on, and it's so charming.

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Margaret Everton to Timeless Exteriors
An example of a pseudo-neutral with white trim, grounded a bit by the dark door and window framing. This green could easily be a gray or camel color, or the stark white trim leaning more towards cream.
This new (and green) home recalls the Victorian Folk Style, which was more simple and stripped down than other styles during the era.
added by Between Naps on the Porch to Green and White...Always Fresh, Never Outdated
Green makes a beautiful statement when used on the exterior of a home. White trim is the perfect accent.
Go smaller: Smaller homes are growing in popularity as more homeowners look for ways to reduce upkeep. Smaller homes use less energy and material and still offer a place of comfort and charm.
This cottage embodies so much of what the neighborhood is about. At just 1,152 square feet, the design is "super compact, simple, efficient and easy to construct," Craft says. "Generally speaking, in traditional architecture most houses are just boxes with incredible proportions and details."The house is just 18' wide by 32' deep, but has made the most of the space. "I avoid elements like long hallways; it's better not to waste that space and use it in something like a bedroom instead," says Craft.
added by Becky Harris to 6 Efficient, Eco-Friendly Projects
Architect Kenny Craft maximized every inch of space in Buena Vista homes like this one, and also designed them so that they could be built efficiently.
