what color to paint exterior siding with this brick?

We’re having the (light grey) siding re-painted and I’d love opinions about what color you would choose. This area by the garage and most of the back of the house are wood siding. The rest of the house is the brick you see. Will add more photos...

    Hi Stephanie,

    You are correct in changing out the paint from the gray. The brick doesn’t have enough of that color to support it. Go with the color you see most when looking at your brick. Medium to dark tan or better yet match paint with the brick trim around your windows.
    good luck,
    Roz

    I would use one of the darker colors in your stone.

    If you want contrast, paint the siding and garage door a medium-dark gray without undertones. If you want minimal contrast, paint the siding and garage door the middle or darkest brown-type color in the brick.

    Stephanie, your house is really pretty .I think a mid to light shade of green , like one of those below , would be very nice . It would provide subtle contrast, without taking away from the light feel of your brick . It would also tie in , organically, with the soft brown of your roof and the natural landscape.

    I love the soft minty green idea, niccidhg!

    I personally don't think that the siding needs to be accentuated. I would rather it blend in with the brick rather than chop up the home.The same with the garage door.

    Still pulling for a very pale green like I posted earlier - not like “ every other house on the block “ - still very light in feel , no jarring contrast, but providing some interest.

    We are finally done painting (BM Titanium) on our exterior siding. We’re happy with the result.
