Hi! I live in Florida and am looking for paint colors for exterior stucco and trim. There is trim around all windows, sliders and garage as well as decorative. Things to note: these are old photos bc currently our windows are being replaced and the trim Is off. The eagles, white lights, hurricane shutter boxes, satelite tv dish and screen in front of the garage have been removed. Any and all suggestions are appreciated. Thanks so much!

Color scheme help, replace red roof with black roof? Paint red brick
Comments (2)The first thing I would do is lose the shutters on the windows to the far right and far left. They are much too small. Second thing would be to get rid of the orange/salmon color around the windows. You already stated that you don't like the roof and that color around the windows is just drawing the eye to it. Are you planning to replace the roof? If so, a weathered gray/tan color would look a lot better. Can't tell if the brick has been painted or not. I'm not a fan of painting brick so if it hasn't been painted I would look for a color to paint the siding that "tones down" the brick color. A medium taupe would look good.

Comments (8)Here's what I recommend for your home. Embrace the lovely California Santa Barbara style for your home. Your home can be very special with a few adjustments. All the window frames should be bronze. Either replace them or paint them. Add a wood or faux wood wall pergola over your garage door and start bougainvillea trailing from the trellis Either select a wood grain garage door or have it painted to match your front door If you want to spend more money select Mexican tiles to install on the risers of your stairs for more interest. Your front yard needs some serious landscaping. No lawn IMO. Maybe ferns and a palm tree. Ferns in the front yard. Mexican planters are a must. You want this look for your home IMO. The paint color is not your issue. Landscaping is....See Moremarybethsboyle

5 years agoI might paint it all the same so it doesn't look so broken up. Keep garage door same paint as house so it's not the focus. Add color to the front door and with plantings leading you to the side, which i imagine is where the door is. Some iron light fixtures would be nice too.
