Exterior Paint Color
Tips for Selecting the Right Color
- When it comes to first impressions, the outside of your home is the first statement
and can enhance curb appeal and even the resale home value. Choosing the right
paint colors for the exterior of your home can define your style and enhance your
home experiences.
- Use architectural details such as shutters or columns, that can be painted in
contrasting colors to add dimension to your home look.
- Gather examples before you begin - Drive through various neighborhoods to see
color in action. Make a note of any color schemes that may be adaptable to your own
home.
- Define the entry to your home by using contrasting coloring for front door and close
surrounding trim.
- Keep Balance. Balance between deep and light paint colors as well as cool and
warm colors within the color scheme for the exterior is an important consideration to
create a home that both looks distinct and also blends well with it's surroundings.
- Consider the colors of the home that can not change such as roofing shingles, stone,
or brick. Choosing paint colors should blend with these factors.
- Windows are the eyes of the home and shutter colors should create a contrast and
add crispness to the color scheme of the home.
