Need help picking shutter, garage door and front door colors!!
Comments (6)This is a recommended color from SW for Mindful Gray…homburg gray. I would do this on the shutters and the garage doors and leave the wood door as is. The two middle windows shouldn’t have shutters as the won’t fit appropriately, but you are not painting the siding and the darker outlines of the shutters will show if you don’t replace what was there. Personally, would like the house with out shutters and would probably paint the siding and garage doors and have no shutters at all....See MoreI need garage door and shutter colors please!
Comments (5)I agree with Judy regarding the shutters. If you keep them for now, keep the color as is...not light blue. Since it's right up front, the garage door should be the same color as the siding. That will help it from pulling so much focus. At some point you might consider a garage door with windows across the top....See MoreNeed help with trim, shutter and front door color selection
Comments (11)Is the paint color an off white (cream)? If so, you color options are basically endless, depending what color your roof is or if you have any brick or stone on the house. When choosing paint colors for my house a couple of years ago, I kept in mind the color of stone on the front of my house, the brick on my chimney color, and my green roof. I then went to Behr's website and played with color combinations and found something that both my husband and I agreed on. With the color of your house in mind and what looks like a dark roof, maybe black, there are so many color combinations you could go with. Here are some photos for inspiration: I absolutely love the colors on this house. More importantly--What colors do you and your family love? Next is a photo of my house since I could not find any other photos that would suit your house on Houzz. I chose paints from Behr Marquee and the house color is Taupe Tease, trim is Superior Blue (my husband's favorite color), and the doors are Fire Cracker Red (my favorite color): All 3 colors work well together and work with the roof, brick, and stone colors as well. I also chose colors that no one else had in our neighborhood....See MoreTrim. column, shutter and garage door color?
Comments (4)IMO the red shutters do nothing to enhace the house and are the wrong choice for those windows. I certainly would not paint the brick no matter what. IMO your best bang for the $ is landscaping and maybe a nice color for the new door and garage door I would leave the posts as is they almost blend into the brick which is ideal in this case .If in the budget a garage door with windows to match the house would be great . Maybe a nice grayed green since that ia nice complelent to all the red then maybe keep the shutters and do them theat same green...See MoreRelated Professionals
