The siding is natural cedar shakes. The color is actually a funny story! The day we were talking about exterior colors, the interior designer was wearing a blue shirt. The client looked at her shirt, and said, "I want the exterior to be that exact color." So, we sent the shirt to our painters and they color-matched the siding perfectly to the color of the shirt. So, to answer your question, it was a custom color. Have a great day!

Hi! I'm thinking about painting my house Gentleman's Grey as well but have no luck finding a house online that actually painted it that color. May I ask what white trim color you chose?
