The stone looks more lilac in one photo, more mauve in the other.

Different time of the day and the second one is a closer and magnified photo for you to see the stones clearer. I wonder if I could pull the gray?

Need some lighting

That is a truly fascinating door. I like the color Jan posted because it will make all the windows blend in more than if you used a light color.

Really how can we answer this without seeing the whole front at least of the house / I do not like that door but I need context

A grey-green like the top right brick would also be pretty. The windows are so the cats can see out. ;-)

I will put another photo of the whole house for you, so you know what is going on.

The photographs really aren't reliable for judging color. One comment I will make is the stone or tile around the windows is very distracting. So is the brick really. Can those be removed so that th house is more cohesive?

I'm afraid not @steveetheridge, the stones all around are there to stay. I totally get what you are saying and it is big dilemma for us, what to do to make the house more cohesive. I mean, who thought that TWO types of stone in front of a house are a good idea? So maybe if a color matches both stones, that could be a solution, not a perfect one, but... I also hate the idea to put another warm color, as the terracotta roofs and this flesh tone stone around the door are enough for me. I'm dying for a cool color, lol.

This is a deeper version of a color grab from the stone

@palimpsest thank you, that is a beautiful gray!

@JAN MOYER, I think I will, it would solve the problem of having all that chaos!

This is just from color grabs so it's not quite right, but what if you painted the body of the house a color of the stone to try and blend things together more.

That definitely works I think @palimpsest! Could you please tell me what the color of the body is on the photo? I think it has a pinkish tone? I can immediately see a difference there.

Love Pal’s suggestion.

Just out of curiosity, how old is your house? Is it in the US?

It's old and in the Meditterannean region, that is why all the terracotta Jilly!

I thought so, thanks for answering!

I like it! Hope you’ll update with what you decide. :)

This is not a real paint color. I pulled a color out of the stone from the photo and darkened it.

What you would have to do is go to a paint store and get a bunch of swatches from a paint store, and test them.

The color you choose would likely be darker and greyer or browner than the stone itself so it wouldn't be too bright.

I live in a neighborhood of brownstones where people have tried to match the body color for repairs and the color they choose is often too bright and looks pinkish instead of brown, so I am assuming you will have to Start with a color from the stone, and then pick one that is darker and duller than you would think.

I am grateful to you @palimpsest for your help! Thank you so much for the detailed answer, I really had a headache trying to decide. @Jill, I will update for sure for any changes! Have a great day!

I only see two choices, one is to match the stone around the door, the other is my preference - match the gray stone around the windows.

Anything else is overkill. Not sure that I wouldn't paint the red brick white and I never say that someone should paint brick.

Do you want a pale rosy lilac house, when alllll you really need to do is paint out the door surround stone? and have a pinky terracotta colored door?

This isn't the hidebound United States where most people consider various shades of off white intense colors.

I am not recommending the house be lilac, there could be a number of stone based colors that work, but I don't think the Houzz default of "cover it with white/grey paint and pretend it doesn't exist" needs to apply. Especially in a Mediterranean climate

Gray door with body painted. Couldn't find a great body color match, but it gives the general idea

@Jennifer Hogan, thank you so much for taking the time to do this! Great palette! I'm grateful for the help! It surprises me that it doesn't look at all like too much warmth as I thought it would, it actually brings everything together, as @palimpsest also suggested! Very impressed with this!

Please test the colors first and look at the colors at all hours of the day and on all sides of your house. I don't always follow my own advice and had to repaint my garage door. (Door was mud brown and all my trim is dark red). The color looked good in the morning and afternoon and so I painted. Evening rolled around and I was driving toward the house and the whole garage door was purple. Had to adjust the color and repaint.

I love the idea from Jennifer Hogan to paint the body a terra cotta color. I like this gray green Benjamin Moore for the door.

That's such a great piece of advice @Jennifer Hogan, thanks a lot! I am going to test them exactly as you suggested to.

Thank you so much @ffpalms, I love this color, you all are saving my life here! :)

People try to match garage doors to their stone, but I think you can do whatever you want with a front door, as it's meant to draw the eye and invite the visitor. So gray, sure, but also plenty of blues, greens, reds would work.
