Green, Blue and Red are all out I'm afraid. The house was sage green when it was first built and it blended it with the surroundings too much as we are literally backed up against the wood with wilderness out our back door. My husband had it stuccoed then years ago and it came out an pale yellow color which wasn't what he thought he was getting. Now it just blends in with the cream color houses all around us. We need to not stick out like a sore thumb in this older neighborhood we are in, but yet give the house some visual clarity so its more easily noticed and stands apart from the neighbors with a darker tone. Red doesn't go at all with what we've done on the inside and isn't our thing, and while I love blue and use a lot of it inside with teals and aquas, we want the exterior to be a stronger neutral...maybe a mid to darker tone tan. I don't have access in this little town to SW or BM paint chips so am hoping to get some ideas for when we get into the city later this week and I will grab some paint chips then.

"...Also we are a bit concerned that the roof may be a bit too encompassing..." You are right! Fortunately, we humans never seen buildings in 2-D elevations, such as depicted on drawings. The purpose of these drawings is convey needed information about the construction of a building, and not to illustrate what a building will actually look like in 3-D. For that, perspectives are necessary. So your huge roof will not look as huge and overbearing as it appears on the elevations. But it will dwarf your house and dominate your view of the house. Unfortunately, this is a common occurance when a drafter or CAD operator designs a house by unilaterally focusing on a floor plan, and thereafter simply plopping roof trusses on the walls of the floorplan. Looking at your roof plan, and floor plan outline, there's a quick and easy approach for a completely different roofing scheme which would greatly reduce your roof massing, but it requires eliminating or changing the roof over what I assume is a back porch. I hope natural light in the interiors of your house is not a major criterion, since you appear to have a very large, deep house, almost square in shape. It's going to be dark in there, regardless of your orientation.

Thank you Marylee! i Love these images. I’m thinking we go for a creamy white stucco (Swiss Coffee or Navajo White).. I was trying to go more contemporary than Mediterranean, but these colors just make sense with the roof.

Your house is brick. So I don’t think the inspiration is necessarily where you will go. I’d repaint the brick white. Definitely beef up the trim with some wood. Or even plain white. Maybe choose a different color trim : Black, Navy, Light gray, Light blue...
