Help with house colors - Certainteed siding

K Ram
last year

We're in the beginning stages of building a custom home and are trying to decide a siding color. Our house plan is more of a modern farmhouse style, so our initial thoughts were between the Certainteed vertical siding/board & batten in either Colonial White or Snow. Colonial white seems very bright, but I'm worried that Snow will just look like a dirty white. I can't find any example photos (outside of the Certainteed website) that feature the Snow siding color. Does anyone have any photos of this color? Or thoughts on Colonial White vs Snow?


We're doing black windows and gutters, white trim, and a wood tone for the front columns/posts. Haven't made a decision on the back porch posts yet. The garage door will be Carbon Oak (https://www.chiohd.com/homeowners/garage-doors/raised-panel).


We're using the 3-car sideload plan here: https://www.familyhomeplans.com/plan-41906 

We're also thinking of the Owens Corning Slatestone Gray shingle (https://www.owenscorning.com/en-us/roofing/shingles/trudefinition-duration?color=slatestone-gray) or Certainteed Pewterwood (https://www.roofle.com/catalog/certainteed/landmark/pewterwood)
