Please help with exterior colors?

3 years ago

We have a ranch house that we mostly love, but we have never liked our exterior brick color much. Painting the brick is something we’re trying to avoid. We are planning on a new black door with 2/3 glass and sidelights with full glass. We plan to get all new windows but can’t decide on trim color. We are also getting new gutters(maybe black) and new fascia and soffits but dont know what color would work best for those as well as our garage doors and a bit of siding up on the top sides of house. And new shutters aren’t out of the question. Please help with color ideas

The right color green might work

I cleaner white would be better than the almond

Ran out of room 😂 New color on ”columns” and all trim is our plan. Currently all trim is almond which I don’t care for and all trim will be painted/changed. Grey?? Greige? our brick is pinkish tan with some grey in mortar.

Do all the trim in black, including the columns.

The black seems severe with your brick and roof. Check our SW Urbane Bronze - it has a softer feel. Your house is lovely!

Other SW soft blacks - Wrought Iron, Iron Ore.

these colors are a great starting point, and would compliment your brick.

Gutters are not an accent feature... blend them with the siding color, or trim, where ever they are attached. don't enhance them.

I love the dark - shade grown. we are now thinking our new windows will have architectural bronze trim, which is one of the color choices our window dealer offers. reminds me of urbane brown. our gutters and siding (very little up on top of house) as well as fascia and soffits and columns and other trim will be similar to the austere gray above in the palette you shared. How does this sound? Now for door color and shutters color? Any suggestions? Thank you so much!!
