Light or dark garage?

11 years ago

These are Photoshopped pics of our house with bronze gutters (will be similar to the driftwood roof color) and the two garage colors we are considering, which are dark brown that is a little darker than the brick and a beige / taupe color that closely matches the siding and windows. Which garage looks better with our house?

Note: front door will be a charcoal gray with a touch of blue (SW Iron Ore).
