Exterior Choice

8 years ago

I am repainting. Considering SW Mountain Road as main exterior color. I need to keep my trim white because I can’t afford to change it at this time. Will it blend into the environment too much? Accent color thoughts for door or potentially adding shutters. Thinking of a navy blue

No shutters for your windows. They aren't designed for shutters. Read this quick article: https://www.lifeofanarchitect.com/residential-architecture-101-shutters/

I love the SW Mountain Road with your current white trim.

Not loving a blue front door though...let me think a bit.

Do paint your garage doors the new siding color.

Paint the risers the same color as your white trim.

Insp pic with SW Mountain Road siding and white trim and a wood door. Looks terrific.
