What Color SW pure white or extra white?
Comments (2)Seeing paint on the walls is the best way to judge what you'e really going to like, but I think you're on the right track. The first photo is a great idea because it will freshen up the overall look, and brighten up the dark entryway and back patio. Since you are looking to stay away from yellows and taupes, pure white or extra white are the way to go. Pure white looks like it's a true gray. While extra white looks like it might lean more towards a blue hue. If you were leaning towards the idea of the third photo, going with a darker gray and keeping the door & window frames white than maybe something like an Eider White might work....See MoreFront entryway plant ideas?
Comments (7)Now seeing the space....I wouldn’t put anything at that little space near the turn of the path. It leaves the area free for the occasional mis-step and gives a sense of ease to your entry. Instead,you might plant colorful annuals in the little L shaped area in front of your bushes that can be seen from the street. I see NO lighting above your door or beside your garage. Do you have any? I would start there first. And I would advise against lighting that will give your path and short driveway the appearance of a landing strip at an airport....See MoreFront entrance ideas
Comments (1)Hello, please give me your ideas on how to get this ugly stone or tile out and what should I put there instead? Can I put tiles over it or should I just do hardwood floor to match the rest of the room? Photo in comments...See MoreFront entrance/porch ideas
Comments (6)I think this one is doable. since you're doing the roof, have them do this and elongate the porch. bring in chunky cedar posts, new door. love the white brick. (romabio) Here's the Before: this one was almost like yours w/the metal porch. look how they redid it (painted brick, revamped path, flower beds, porch posts, painted windows, extended porch) what about this one? painted brick, black trimmed windows, simple overhang (like above) slightly different porch posts. The slate tile porch, extended over to one side, and the pathway w/flower beds, really add a lot. I like this idea too do a little arbor, redo the porch w/some coposite wood decking, or maybe some black slate tile w/wood steps. Get a more modern door. I hope you go w/a dark charcoal roof tile. I reall like this one too. what do you think about extending your porch under either window? since you're redoing the roof, adding a wood arbor like this wouldn't be too diffult. (can those windows be painted or are they vinyl? They'd look great trimmed out in black) And, I really like how they painted this porch deck and added the tiny flower beds in front of it. here's the gable you mentioned. porch is simple. what do you think about painting the brick? Look at Romabio Lime Masonry paint. all natural. what if you extended the roof over the front door similar to this? bring in some chunky cedar posts, new door, NO shutters. maybe paint the trim of the windows. They painted the brick black in this one. looks great w/the cedar Or, do the brick in all white. ignore the right side. you can see how they built onto the front porch and did the overhang w/a gable. this is going into the farmhouse vibe rather than the mcm vibe...See Moretracy6321
