What a beautiful home! I do, however, think the house needs to be brightened up! I like the idea of adding stonework to the pillars on the deck, it would relate nicely with the garage. As for the trim colour, I'd suggest pulling a mid tone from the stone work and using that as your trim colour and perhaps for your garage door as well. I would definitely recommend using a pop of colour for the front door, or if you prefer neutrals, pick a colour a few shades away from whatever you end up pulling out of the stonework for the trim.

Hello Penny04 (zone 8a), What about a neutral color? It would work well with everything you have and be a bit warmer visually too. This color is Benjamin Moore London Fog 1541. Karen Haggard, CID

The existing (sage?) looks nice.

I think we have settled on SW 6194 Basil for the house color only because I really like green houses. However, if you have an eye for color, please feel free to offer a different color. All I know is I hate this light blue. We originally thought SW 6193 Privilege green with SW 6236 Grays Harbor, but I really want a slightly darker green house. However, if we go with this darker green, I cannot figure out what color to paint the trim. Our garage door and our back facing windows have been replaced with a stone color and I don't want to paint them. (The front wood windows are the originals but will be replaced with the stone vinyl windows in the next year or 2.) I just bought SW 9111 Antler Velvet to try with them (we think our windows are close to SW 9110 Malabar) and I don't like it at all. If you have any advice, I would appreciate it. I like earthy colors. I like the idea of a blue trim with the Basil, but I really have no idea if that color combo would work AND I don't know which SW color. The painter we hired uses Sherwin-Williams paint. Front and back photos of house attached. (House faces north.) Thank you!
