Do a Pinterest, Houzz, and Google image search for yellow brick house and whatever roof color the house has--very important. Yellow brick houses can look great with the right trim paint, a colorful front door, with attention on landscaping instead of maintenance required when brick gets painted. The brick you show has a a lot of gray grout, so light gray or taupe trim would enhance the house. Take into account the roof color.

Light gray trim paint harmonizes with window and door frames as well as gray roof:

On this house, the trim is coordinated with brick and stone walkway and landing:

Brown roof and golden taupe trim harmonize:

Thank you!!! would you say the brick is pink and yellow combo? Because it doesnt exactly look like most yellow brick houses. And she's getting the roof redone so I guess the color can be changed to whatever looks best. The back of the house is pictured. (gutters are being installed to help deal with the water that runs off)

Is the roof in poor condition or does it just need to be washed?

What ever the colors in the brick it makes no difference as there is nothing to paint, except a door.

Cute house, it is the landscaping that needs attention.

Thank you for your reply! and yes- landscaping is a must. i was asking mainly for color ideas for trim, shutters, and door. The roof was in need of repair, so in the next few weeks she should be getting that done. But Landscaping is probably the most important thing now that you've mentioned it.

This is the front of the house (first image). We used Sherwin Williams Color Visualizer thing for the second image. She wants a clean look.

Wonderful house! For a clean, more modern look, remove the shutters. Not sure white entryway would work. Trim could match the roof but several shades lighter, then entryway could be the same gray as trim but many shades lighter than that. Skim coat it same color it is now since it harmonizes with the brick.

so all one color- but different shades of it and no shutters- got it!! for your last sentence what were you talking about skim coating?

Looks just like my brick. We embraced the color, went with gray roof, gray trim and the reddest front door the brick colors would support. That was after someone on Houzz told me to “embrace the brick. Learn to love it.” She was correct. Depending on the time of day the brick photographs pink, salmon, tan or hint of yellow.

i was asking mainly for color ideas

There are quite a few colors I can see why there are questions.

The only way to avoid the visual gymnastics of trying to just eyeball it and pin down the colors is to get a Color Muse and measure a range of obviously different colors.

Pull the "h" number for each color scanned (h = hue angle) from the Color Muse app and plot the angles out on The Color Strategist Color Wheel.

That will literally draw a picture of where you are in terms of the hue family range of the bricks.

Establishing the hue family(ies) makes it easy to then figure out paint color options - for example a near neutral beige with a similar hue angle for the trim.

Or roof shingles, for example you probably don't want a charcoal shingle that leans greenish.

The existing roof, looks to be a charcoal color. I would replace with a very similar color to what is there. Also, with her brick, make sure the roofing is just the regular type shingles, rather than architectural. architectural, or mixed color roofing, will not look good on the house. I agree, a type of gray (match the grout in the brick), would look good for trim. etc. She can choose any bright color that appeals to her for the door.

Thank you!!

@housegal200 i apologize because im having a spacey moment but i meant what were you talking about skim coating? the concrete driveway or the acutal brick ?? i was confused with your first post

my updated ideas a light gray on trim and under carport, darker gray on doors. plants will range (i suck at pairing plants)- but since she wants a clean look i was thinking straight lines (the hedge) with a hint of color. And i thought no shutters at first but i like the color being carried on that side so now- keep shutters and hopefully roof is same color it is now, if not alittle darker

Skim coating the driveway or maybe it just needs a good power washing.
