What would you choose?? New home exterior options
Comments (34)Garage doors: the largest and most scale-busting element on the face of a residential building. Nothing is as large or so obtrusive and visible. If the garage door must face front, at least paint it to match the siding color of the garage (or even a darker value) so that the visual contrast is lessened. What does this mean? Look at all your photos. The garage door is light, the surrounding walls are medium or dark values. Ask your builder to paint the garage doors to be the same or darker value of the surrounding walls. Better yet: take Mark's suggestion and make the single oversized door into two smaller and more interesting shapes. Good luck!...See MoreCan you use a warm toned neutral color with a cool tone neutral color?
Comments (13)Can someone tell me what this color white means for me then? It's supposed to be a bright white. Will it work with the crisp muslin? Sure will. DEW380 is a very pretty white. As you can see from its hue family notation it belongs to the middle of the Green-Yellow (GY) hue family. Chroma of 0.10. And that's everything you want in a clean, crisp, neutral "just white" white. It would take some diggin' to find a color that does not work with DEW380. With its low chroma it even works with other colors of white and you don't have to worry about either color of white looking dirty or dingy - again, because DEW380 has such a low chroma value of 0.10....See MoreCan you help me choose a trim color for my newly painted house?

Comments (9)Have a look at the Blog posts and Colorography Lab at The Land of Color .com for attributes of lots of popular paint colours. It allows you to compare similar colours in detail. If you are looking at whites/off-whites or indeed any colours, note that the higher the Chroma the more colourful colour. A colour maybe so low in Chroma you might struggle to immediately recognise in which Hue Family it belongs. Even so, every single paint colour does belong to a Hue Family: identifying which, helps you combine colours with greater confidence. Here are some popular whites by comparison....See MoreRelated Professionals
