Need help picking an exterior paint color and landscaping.

Have a cedar house that needs painting and some repair. Need to decide on colors. Leaning towards keeping the white trim and going to a slightly darker color. Maybe a grey-green or grey-blue. The roof is brighter green than the picture makes it look.



Advice needed:

1. What style house is this? Florida 1987 cedar siding

2. Main color knowing Ill have white trim and green roof.

3. Do I keep the shutters? If so what color? not sure if they are supposed to be there with the vertical pillars on the siding.

4. Door color, I like the reddish door.

5. What color do you paint the vertical pillars? I was thinking the same color as the main exterior, but I'm wondering what white would look like??

6. Would you paint the patio ceilings Haint blue? I think its a myth, but could add a little extra southern character.


I would prefer the Sherwin Williams paint colors as I'm using their paint.

Also will take advice on landscaping, this photo was taken with google maps, will update later with real photo.
