Help with exterior colour

13 years ago

We are going to. Renovate and I have my heart set on a coral exterior white trim and a blue door or blue exterior white trim and coral door. We live in Nova Scotia and our cottage is on the lake. Do you think in the winter season these colours would be too stark??? Everyone around is brown, baby blue, or grey!! I want a cheery colour!!!

The Reno is set to start in a week or two so the outside will look different. We will put on a cathedral ceiling and bump kitchen out. Keep the big windows in front and add a hip roof area to sit out under . the door would not show in front but I would bring that colour to the front with flower pots and cushions! Adding a pic of the before! I have some time to decide but live theses two colours. We live here now so I do not want to make a bad decision!
