We have a great 1970s ranch one level home. It is now time to replace the "poo color brown" (as I like to call it) paint. Ideally, I would like to have some sort of gray (but would need warm tones).

A couple things that might be helpful for giving comments...

There is a red brick walkway up to house - I love it and would like to keep. I also love the warm wood tone on the front door and will keep as the color is the same as the woodwork throughout inside of house.

Part of the back of the house is shown here - we are going to be re-staining the deck and we also have a pool. We will be doing pavers (likely in gray/stone color) with "clean lines" for the back yard - trying to make the home look more mid-century modern. Also it is important that the colors tie in with wood on front door as that is the wood color on sliders and windows inside house.

Questions -

1. Sherwin Williams color suggestions? (painter using SW)

2. Would you color the garage same or contrasting color?

3. Other comments?

Thanks so much in advance!
