That's good the windows will be closer together. I think the trim on the upper windows is fine. You'll also have the apex trim the cream, as well as the "gutter" trim and the "V" triangles on the roofline. Oh...Yes, I agree the porpoise may be too dark. How about a couple of shades lighter on the paint chip?

Can you post a picture of the back of your house? What about white windows? Maybe paint the portico posts and porch railings white as well? The first image is similar. That might allow you to use the black door if you really like the look of a black door. Not sure how it would look with keeping the soffit color the same, but just throwing out ideas! The second image is a house with similar colors as yours, with a black door, which looks nice too. Granted, both houses have shutters and your home is not conducive to adding shutters.

I like the black windows but no white trim. That is tough to work with and actually detracts from the black windows. It’s not real popular around here but mainly because you can’t get the darn windows in any reasonable time frame. These are typically ordered early in the build process so the trend might fizzle due to availability issues. Might want to check on that with your builder right away.

We are building a single story house and going with a very dark gray/black siding and true black trim. We are trying to determine the best roof color - deciding between Iko Cambridge Harvard Slate or Dual Black
