I'm getting a new front door what color should I do the interior side.
Comments (7)Lars, if I had your beautiful door, I'd have it the same inside and out as well. I don't know if I've ever seen the front of your house, but it looks fantastic with your interior. I love your colors BTW. My front door is white inside and out, as is the trim inside and out. However, I don't think I'd mind seeing a different color temporarily when I open the door. It's kinda like, oh hello, nice to see you. But I don't think I'd want that color all on its own inside my house. Your door is an exception....See MoreNeed suggestions with front of house colors, door and shutters.
Comments (7)So glad you removed the shutters. They don't belong on your 1960s ranch home, even if they were put there by the original builder. Here are two articles to show you why: Shutters vs Shudders More detail about Shutters from Old House Guy I agree with you - no craftsman door. I will look for a door that is suitable for your ranch and others will jump in too :) The biggest improvement you can make is your landscaping. It is all jammed up against your house. Find a landscape designer to put together a plan for you that you can implement over time as your budget allows. Right now your landscaping acts as a barrier and not a sign of 'welcome home'. Wide & deep landscape beds with a wide entrance walkway open up your home. Good call on the black roof color for your new roof.

Comments (7)Add a simple fence parallel to the house in front of the trash bins and a/c area. You have a natural area to add an L shaped fence and tie into your chain link. I wouldn't add a chain link fence to hide it unless you landscape the area well. Remember to leave enough room around the a/c so the techs can service it and landscaping doesn't interfere with it....See MoreFront door on side of house - big empty wall.
Comments (5)As you probably already know, putting a window there would be the optimal thing to do. If you can't then maybe a large piece of outdoor wall art. When you paint the siding, don't reinstall the shutters. They are way too small and are inappropriate for this style window. You could beef up the trim around the window and that would help. Also, a color with a bit more depth would enhance the look. If you're interested in seeing some virtual makeovers of your home, check out my website, Creative Visual Concepts...See MoreTazza Lyon
