Soft, true white for exterior? (Hardiplank modern farmhouse)
Comments (8)i saw this on houzz and liked it. it's called westhighland white by sherwin williams. i haven't checked out the sample card yet. we are building again and I'm torn as to whether i want to use Shoji again or try something different just for fun. westhighland white is one i want to consider. it looks to be pretty creamy, however. not quite as fresh as shoji https://www.houzz.com/photos/rj-elder-design-traditional-garage-phvw-vp~80000-Elder-Design-traditional-garage-and-shed-other-metro https://www.houzz.com/photos/rj-elder-design-farmhouse-garage-phvw-vp~79995-Elder-Design-traditional-garage-and-shed-other-metrov...See Moreexterior - modern farmhouse
Comments (3)Virgil Carter Fine Art - thank you, and yes! I need that arbor or trellis over the garage doors. I'm adding that to my list. Naf_Naf - thank you! I think I do like a richer tone like what you linked to. That house overall is beautiful. The only thing I didn't love about it was that there are many different colors of wood--rich red outside, light colored wood floors, etc. That being said, if I had the shower from that house, I'd probably be so happy I wouldn't notice the different wood stains....See MoreDelicate White exterior paint? modern farmhouse
Comments (9)There are a gazillion varieties of "white". Some are warm; some are cool. Some have a color bias, and some appear neutral. The only way to evaluate a potential paint color is to buy a small sample jar and paint several large areas on pieces of plywood or similar materials suitable for paint. Take the samples to the location you have in mind and place at least one in the sun and at least one in the shade. Study the effects of the samples under various, changing lighting conditions and make your decision. For most of us, it takes several sample and several tries before we are satisfied. Good luck!...See MoreHelp! Modern Farmhouse... something's off with exterior
Comments (18)Thank you for the feedback. This is a rebuild. The reason the house looks as it does is that we asked the architect to give it more presence/mass. We are replacing a rancher with what felt like another rancher, and felt underwhelmed. Here is a rendering. The siding and the stucco are the same beige (since white is not allowed), and the stone picks up the beige with some grays and darker browns. Those pillars make me see giraffe legs!...See Moredecoenthusiaste
