Paint color suggestions for mission style stucco
Comments (5)love that house! I've seen white stucco houses, but I think they look best if the red tile roofs are *really red*, not clay-ish or terra cotta-ish. On my monitor, it looks like your roof is brownish or antique-red or terra cotta. Since the gray is really "new" looking, very clean looking, it seems like the blue trim would need to play up the antique or vintage look of the roof; if you have new/clean paint & new/clean trim, it might make the roof look old/dingy. The darkest blue, on the right side vertical part of the window trim, seems like the best to me.

When I finally narrowed to 2 options my contractor made 2 big samples which we placed against the walls on construction site and finally made a decision. With stucco colors it is really tricky. It changes color depending on the time of the day and light. In certain lights you can notice hues which you cannot see other times. Above is the picture of the stucco sample made by my contractor....See Moreexterior stucco paint combos- suggestions welcome!
Comments (7)Proceed w caution—I once asked a pro house painter about painting my stucco (as in I was trying to hire him) and he told me ’I will do your interior; painted stucco always looks like crap.’...See Moreffpalms
