Your current door color doesn't clash, it just doesn't look the least bit inviting or interesting.

For the shutters, Urbane Bronze would look nice... or that darker tone in the stone.

the door? what about this grape tone? look how nice it is w/your colors. shades of that purple/dark lavender, are it's compliment on the color wheel.

here,,,gorgeous!

I think this dark, rich eggplant/aubergine, would look the best

or a dark forest green would be the other option.

and make sure you get these colors in front

I like the original color of the door. I don’t think it clashes with the stone at all.

Hi guitargoddess-

Congratulations on your lovely new home!

There are so many paint colors, you can make yourself crazy, and it would be infuriating to pick out a color, fall in love with it only to have it rejected by the HOA.

Why not go about it from the other direction?

Drive around your development with a piece of board painted the color of your house with a stripe of your eave/fascia and your stone trim grout color. Look for a house that is any of those colors and see what their shutters are painted and take a photo, better yet, knock on the door and ask them, or put a note under the door.

Another thing you can do is contact your HOA and very specifically ask for suggestions. An HOA can be such busybodies, you may get someone to speak to that may actually be helpful to you, i.e. tell you what colors other people have used recently, since they have had to ask for approval.

From the picture shown, I don't think the red color looks bad. It all depends on what part of the country you live too. I think I would match the roof. That way you will be safe. You can take a roof tile to the paint store and have them color match.

Best of luck!

I like best the "wrong" color that the door was painted to begin with. If you need HOA approval, I doubt you could get away with eggplant or bright blues. The biggest complaint I would have is the garage door. You have some thoughtful colors and trim going on and then the door is just very stark white in contrast.

THANK YOU so much for ALL of the great ideas! It's amazing how different Fenland looks next to a brown tone rather than the red. The HOA almost certainly won't go for any bright colors but it's fun to see that visual. The garage doors look great in a dark shade- love this suggestion, as well as getting a roof tile color matched. Phuninthesun, do you remember which colors you used in the image?
