I like the idea of a color like Drydock for its depth and colorfulness and not-so-traditional slant for the house. But Drydock could easily turn a pinkish taupe depending on base, colorant, the hand that mixes it. Juxtaposed to a yellowish-cream trim the color harmony just isn't there whether the mix comes out looking exactly like the chip or whether it ends up with that surprising pink undertone that I see Drydock having the potential to turn towards. The thing you have to look at with your house is the direction of the material on the body. It runs vertical. My guess is odds are pretty good that those are asbestos shingles. Since your DH knows paint, I'm sure he knows what to do about old layers of lead paint and asbestos on an old house if indeed that's what you have to work with. The direction of the body material matters as fas as which colors it can wear best. There are certain color characteristics that are best suited to horizontal and vertical. Horizontal is more traditional and can wear lighter, paler, pastel colors very well. Like light begies, creams, buttercream yellows, wasabi greens. Vertical is by default more contemporary and literally is a different twist on business as usual siding. Vertical carries more drama or unique curb appeal personality because of its direction and, therefore, it can wear more dramatic, contemporary, colorful color. Like red, gold, olive green. I think that's evident in the virtuals above i.e. the putty is an awful pairing with the house/siding. All the other colors that are more colorful and a bit bolder just look better, IMO, because of the style of the house but also because of the vertical orientation of the shingled body. The Bronze Gold virtual color could translate to an in-real-life paint color along the lines of BenM Jamesboro Gold, BenM Livingston Gold, SW Relic Gold, SW Roycroft Brass. That's the kind of color I had in mind when I was painting. Pinks, magentas, citrusy greens could be nice accent colors. Olive Green is a good option too. Purples could be your punch color in plants, porch accessories, etc. Some good olive exterior colors are: SW Messenger Bag, SW Avacado, SW Mossy Gold, BenM Weathersfield Moss. SW's Creamy or Dover White could work as trim colors with the olives and the golds as well as fit with your original thoughts of a warmer, creamier trim color.

@Dunn Edwards. I love the meta data info that pops up when I Google your colors. Whoever made the decision to do this should get a huge bonus this year because it's freaking brilliant - and USEFUL. I found this by accident when I was standing in a partially dry-walled reno in 110° Phoenix heat and Googled one of your colors. BAM! Everything I needed right there on the first line - on my phone. Made me so happy I almost cried. Also, if you include H/V/C with your posts, it will not be lost on the readers here. Many *get* color notations.

Thanks, the roof is also Brown and I believe the window frames are paintable
