Do these colors go together ?
Paining our exterior and wondering if SW 7641 Colonnade Gray for the body of the home goes with painting our front door SW 9149 Inky Blue ?
Adding - Our porch is recessed about 6'. I have selected neutral greige tile for the porch flooring. The red brick around our front door is going to be painted.
I think I could have earned a PhD quicker than selecting paint colors!

Comments (0)I am painting my hallway and living room walls SW Kilim Beige. I would like to add an accent wall to the room. The wall has a large brick fireplace painted white and vaulted ceilings.

Comments (6)Hello Eweandbee - I just started growing Strawberry Hill and BB this past spring. SH is in the ground but BB came as band and he's still in a pot. Here are photos that might help you with the color question. Strawberry Hill - with some orange shading in the center OpenSH with yellow stamens A bud of Benjamin Britten which looks cerise in this photo (according to my computer). I agree with Malorena that BB has some orange blended into its version of red when it opens, but SH does as well. I've heard that BB can get as tall as in 5-6 ft in California but I've seen Facebook photos from the U. K. of SH at 8ft tall on an obelisk. So you might think about whether these two should be placed together given given their proportional differences. If you'd still like to pursue planting them together, if you have the 2015 DA U. S. catalog, on page 95 there's a garden design plan showing BB planted next to The Mayflower (a pink rose) together. It's a matter of personal taste but I think the DA folks would approve of what you'd like to do in terms of colors. Good luck! Ann...See MoreDo these colors go together???

6 years agoIt actually might work very well, just keep your trim white or light gray. It is hard to apply color on this picture, since it's too small. But here is an idea how it might look like in similar colors. Hope this helps.

6 years agolast modified: 6 years agoOne more question please....Should the Support piece of wood (not sure what it's called, maybe it's just decorative) just below the rain gutter in this photo be painted the same color as the body of the house OR should it be painted white ? When getting painting estimates, I've been told both ways. Thanks!
