White Vinyl windows with an all red brick house?
Comments (1)We are doing this, but with white gutters and trim. I now worry the gutters will look awful in white, but have no other ideas....See MoreWhat color exterior with Green roof, White windows & Red brick :)
Comments (6)Yes, the roof is blue to us. For the siding, I'd choose a color close to a mid-tone in your brick (i.e. not the darkest, not the lightest, not the boldest, not the dullest). It will blend well. Given everything going on in the facade, you want a quiet blending color on the siding IMO. It's a beautiful, interesting-looking house....See Morewhite bungalow w red roof,red garage door,red front door,red brick
Comments (0)We need to remove brick under bay window because it’s falling off, but the rest is ok. We’d like to replace it with something else and paint the red brick to match whatever material we use, possibly charcoal to bring out the dark in roof. Thinking either vinyl stacked stone siding, vertical siding or vinyl shake siding. Also should we do the whole window wall or just under window. I’d love to keep garage door & front door red but give it a fresh coat....See MoreWhat White for Exterior Trim and White Vinyl Windows
Comments (19)(no, none of those your mentioned would clash w/your windows. I've linked quite a few articles for you to read. give them a shot first, and then come back if you have questions) Here's a color review on Dorian Gray. she favors Pure White and High Reflective white for the trim. https://www.kylieminteriors.ca/paint-colour-review-sherwin-williams-dorian-gray-sw-7017/ Have you ever read any of Kylies articles on exposure and paint colors? very interesting. here are a few you can peruse https://www.kylieminteriors.ca/exterior-painting-4-things-to-know-before-picking-a-colour/ https://www.kylieminteriors.ca/the-best-exterior-paint-colours-why-your-homes-exposure-matters/ scroll down to where she talks about East facing homes. SO, HOW DOES EAST-FACING LIGHT AFFECT PAINT COLOURS ON THE EXTERIOR OF A HOME? East-facing morning light is bright and will make paint colours look MUCH lighter than they will in the afternoon An east-facing afternoon will look an AWFUL lot like a north-facing one in that it gets NO sunshine and no shadows. It’s also similar to a west-facing morning light – flatter than a pancake In the afternoon, east-facing homes can look more shaded – more like they do on the north-facing side (or western morning) With east-facing light being tricky, you’ll want to pay attention to the LRV that you choose. This way, you can land on an LRV that doesn’t wash-out too much in the morning, but also doesn’t look too heavy in the afternoon. https://www.kylieminteriors.ca/paint-colours-and-lrv-the-ultimate-guide-to-choosing-the-right-colour/ https://www.kylieminteriors.ca/how-to-pick-exterior-paint-colours-in-5-easy-steps/ https://www.kylieminteriors.ca/sherwin-williams-best-gray-greige-paint-colours/ this link is all gray paint colors that she talks about. pay attention to the undertones and the LRV https://www.kylieminteriors.ca/page/2/?s=gray+exterior+colors...See Morecat_ky
