What colours should we paint our exterior house?
Comments (18)Thank you for all the comments. I really like Prospect Heights Row House with the Dark Grey/Blue combination. When I say Scandi/Norwegian I am referring to contemporary styles (attached images below) and while I acknowledge the house does have Scandi colours at present, they painted style is more 80s ski chalet. Any visual apps/websites i can use to play with trim/windows/pillars/door options? Its such a great house, keen to respect the exterior whilst bringing it bang up to date....See MoreUsing white all white windows but having black sliding patio door.
Comments (58)I am also a designer, I did white windows in Florida and black sliders and black front door both Inside and Out block. The windows are all white inside and out. It looks absolutely amazing. I did it in my house as well in Canada. I have French doors in the bedroom everything is Modern transitional decor. The block with linen Drapery and neutral blackout drapes look absolutely amazing. Don’t listen that everything has to match. Bloch is not a color. It’s more of a statement. You will be very happy to get the black sliders with the matching block handles or you could also do brushed chrome. It looks richer a little bit more expensive And definitely a great idea of your designer....See MoreCurb appeal help for 1978 Tutor or Alpine Chalet or Modern Style house
Comments (19)Nice house. Like your front door and the entry you've created. Would not add shutters to any windows. it is the contrasting trim, even without steep roof lines, suggests the Tudor vibe. The two story roof being extended over the entry suggests the Chalet vibe -- but it also could be a more modern or even a mid-century modern vibe without the contrasting trim. Would want the entire house one color -- no contrasting trim color and no contrasting garage door color. That said, IF you want your front entry to be m ore dominant, painting the entry porch ceiling and the walls beneath it and the porch post a different color -- or different shade of the same color -- as the siding could help make your entry the focal point of the front of the house....See MoreModern house plan using white windows???

Comments (30)Post your questions here. Start a new thread if you wish in the windows section only. There are pros there (including myself) who will be glad to offer help and advice. There will be people whose opinion you may not want to listen to but that is fine just ignore the advice you do not like. There are a good bunch of people there who will happily steer you in a good direction. Realistically unfortunately the best way to compare is by getting advice from people who sell and use the products on a regular basis. Everyone has a website that looks good these days and unfortunately many websites are better than their products. You can also email me direct as my email address is in my profile....See MoreRelated Professionals
