I like the darker green and even the door but it looks more like wood than paint

I would go with the orange door with green, but burnt orange.

Is this image your actual house or your inspo pic?

I would love to have a wood stained door but the southern exposure heat is brutal. I think wood look fiberglass might be the plan. Also love the orange color idea. Thanks all!!

Lyn - this is my house. I'm adding columns and changing the old T111 siding to lap siding and repainting. This is a photo of my house but with some AI columns added only. I have a red wood front door but the glass panes seals have failed and can't be replaced due to the way the door was manufactured. So new door (fiberglass) next time.

Darn sorry I attached the first pass of my house redo. It actually has T111 on it not lap siding like this photo. All else is the same.

Thank you Payton. I was so revved up to get this project going and just learned I have active termites around the foundation. I was getting ready to get siding bids and had some ducting stone and they noticed it. So now I'm in maintenance repair mode instead of the cosmetic mode. 😥. I'll get the little bugs gone and then back to the new siding and paint !

Typo. "Ducting Done, it ducting stone. Oops.

Great question, and that photo is a beautiful direction to pull from - the deeper green paired with the warm wood tones on the gable really gives it that moody, layered look you're after.

On the door: I'd actually steer you away from a true red unless you're set on that classic look - with white windows staying put, a bright or "Christmas" red can fight the trim more than it complements it. A dark mustard or pumpkin is a smart instinct here. Both read as warm without competing with the green, and they'll pick up nicely against white trim the way the wreath and porch furniture do in your inspiration photo. If you want something with a little more depth than pumpkin, a burnt terracotta or deep clay red (more brick-toned than fire-engine) can give you that "moody" richness without tipping into holiday territory.

One thing I'd flag: since you're doing siding and paint together, this is actually the easiest time to test door colors against the new siding color rather than the current one... undertones can shift how a door color reads once the field color around it changes. Happy to help you cross-check a couple of swatches side by side once your siding color is locked in, if that'd be useful. Exciting project, this one's going to have a lot of character when it's done!
