Exterior Paint Colors

last year

I need some advice with exterior paint colors. I would like to paint my house white, so looking for a nice white color. Shutters and Gutters are going to be painted black (I haven’t settled on a black color either). And then I am trying to figure out if the trim should be a different color. I prefer Sherwin Williams or Benjamin Moore paint.

I wouldnt change the color, you already have. Your house is gorgeous, just the way it is. I dont think, white would be even half as nice as whats there.

Post a picture of the house as a comment.

Gutters are not a design feature so black may not work

Yes, a picture needed. My only comment, without seeing a picture of your house, would be that if you do white be careful not too bright. In my experiece whites always look brighter on large surfaces. i saw a house painted in SW Alabaster, looked nice, they had SW Tricorn trim.

Wow lovely home. If you do white also do the trim and gutters white in a different sheen. Then black shutters would be nice. Although you might see how you like it without the shutters because your windows have nice trim.

All the dental molding is so busy. I would paint it darker to make the detail recede visually. Paint it the same Sage green as the siding. Or maybe even a darker version of the siding.

Then paint the shutters and front door the Tricorn Black.

The rest of the trim looks nice in white...is it cream? It should be white with the sage.
