Exterior paint help

5 months ago

The exterior of our home is a combination of brick and siding. Our brick has areas of white spots and the white paint on the house emphasizes the spots. We’d like to leave the brick and change the siding, trim and shutter colors to earthy/neutral tones. I’ve added a pic of our house and an inspiration pic.
Suggestions for colors/combos?

You have white vinyl windows so I would paint the trim white. The shutters are only on a couple windows so I would remove them. Doors could be anything at that point. I would prefer natural wood.

On what I can see of your house, I dont see black on your house. Leave the trim white like it is. I am very sorry, but, I hate the garage door. It looks fake, and isnt attractive.. I would paint the garage door, the same color as the siding, so it all blends together, and the garage doesnt jump out as the first thing a person sees, when they look at the house.
