Another fan of the white for the house too, but I do sort of like the idea of the limewash for the brick fireplace and serving bench for your patio. I like the aqua colors you appear to be using as accents there and think there just needs to be more of that no matter which way you go. It looks great with the black furniture. For the front, are you planning to paint the brick around the foundation? If so, could you go with a soft grey there to bring in the grey you want? And maybe grey shutters. As with many homes, the builder didn't give you much room for foundation planting, so if you are re-landscaping, have you figured in expanding your beds or just re-planting in the existing beds? I too like the white roses with the white house, so if you keep anything, I'd vote for keeping those and replacing everything else. It appears you are in California, and it sounds like you may already have some specific landscape plans. I'd definitely suggest something slim and columnar next to the garage and replace the shrubs below the garage windows with something lower growing and with more foliage.

jojogirl11 sorry for the delay. Have I made progress? I wish I could say that I have but....I got the room painted and am still waiting on the window treatments and pillows. My sewing lady had a death in her family out of state so she hasnt even been in town for the last 3 weeks but I do completely understand. In the meantime my husband says he might want to switch his office to the playroom due to more room. By the way he would want it painted a different color. After I just painted....UrGG the nerve! So I guess I am at a stand still. How is your project coming along? What color paint did you choose? And did you find your map?

Try BM Mount Saint Anne.

Impossible to give the exact name of the color. However, it is a charcoal, without the bluish undertones of some charcoal, and some type of medium gray, also without blue undertones.
