If you Romabio the brick the same colors as the siding, the house will look more cohesive and arguably larger.

Could edit out the shutters and change the color of the garage and front door.

Romabio isn't regular exterior paint. It's mineral paint. No one uses regular paint on exterior masonry any more because there are issues.

But getting custom color matches in Romabio takes a little work. Contact them to get info based on your location. Here's their IG https://www.instagram.com/romabiopaints/

Great suggestion thanks!

You don't want to paint the brick or otherwise put a coating on it. Brick is a low-maintenance material. Any paint will probably not last more than 10 years. Trying to match colors is tough, anyway. Even if you get a good match, the chances are that the colors will age differently, leaving you with a mismatch down the road. .

The beige siding does not go with the brick. I'd paint the siding a warm color that goes with the brick and do the trim in cream. I'd remove the shutters.
