From this camera angle anyway, the garage dominates the view of the house. I'd paint the garage doors the same colour as the rest of the house, maybe a slightly darker shade. Also, the proportion of the brick area above the garage doors seems off. Maybe reduce the height of it a bit. I would consider whitewashing the brick to reduce the contrast with the siding. Also get rid of the colourful flower pots by the garage. That's not an area where you want to draw the eye. And the large shrub needs to go. Agree with removing the shutters but then you need to beef up the trim around the windows. Nice house. A few pictures from other vantage points might give us a better idea of how the house really looks. For example, as you walk up the steps.

I'd paint the trim black, maybe redo the white porch w/natural cedar or redwood and do some cedar shakes in the gable portion. accent w/copper (down spouts, pots, hardware, etc) see how they brought in the cedar shingles in the gable? I like the black trim on the roof fascia, around the windows (no shutters) and the copper a nice warm charcoal like Kendall Charcoal w/the black, could also work. You could do your porch area w/the charcoal, and black elsewhere. no shutters another nice color is a sage green. (and the copper). think patina green like copper turns when it oxides. that's the shade of green you want. similar to yours, but a deeper black shutter, door and fascia trim. consider doing your porch ceiling in a beadboard or even wood flooring planks. (or cedar planks) stained a warm brown tone if you consider painting the brick, use a natural product like Romabio Romabio also has masonry paint that gives a thicker coverage.

I love the concept but think your base layer brick wants to stay darker than or equal to the depth of color on the main house. Seaworthy is an LRV of 7 . . your brick is probably in the 40's and orange against the green is pretty tough to pull off .White trim is not ideal against teh orange brick either. A great tone against this kind of brick is to work with the deepest shade in the brick . . looks like a warm gray. Olive tones work, and then you can do a beautiful blue / blue green front door and trim around the windows . . . Test BM River Gorge Gray, Willow Creek, or River Reflections . . these are considerably lighter in tone but still may feel deeper than the brick . . . make it jump forward to the eye . . and you want it to recess . . you can go up the shade chart one notch if you feel that happening. . I love the wood doors .. must then suggest nautical lighting fixtures and a warm neutral buff trim - a classic tan will pale out to beige in the sunlight. Remember than all colors are about 2 shades lighter when used on an exterior . . but depth of color to the brick won't shift much . . For blue green front door accent . . . . try historic williamsburg wythe blue.

Thanks everyone for helping me with your kind inputs. We paused the project, met couple fo color consultants at dunn edwards and have shortlisted - reclaimed wood for house color - trade winds for fascia trim - fade to black for accent Attaching pic of color and the roof tile. luckily we had some extra tiles. current house pic with stucco coat, need to paint and put doors and post. This is my backyard. Reclaimed wood will go well with the planter too. Should we paint block wall? Let me know if this seems on right track now to modernize the home REALLY APPRECIATE IF YOU CAN PROVIDE FEEFBACK ASAP. My painter will be back tomorrow to paint, so he is waiting on me to tell him final color.
