Accent colors for pink brick ranch

Posted 09-21-2009 8:28 PM by candicevans. 1 replies.

 

We have been in this house for 2 years, and have updated the interior...but the exterior is in dire need of help.  I am looking for suggestions on shutter colors, front door color, and garage door color.  The gutters are new, and therefore will remain white.  The windows are also new, and are not paintable.  We cannot replace the siding, but I am willing to consider painting it...otherwise it will have to remain white as well.

Help please!

    Thanks for writing! I apologize for the delay in getting back to you. I was travelling for Lifetime last week, but I'm back and eager to help.

    Here's what I recommend for you:

    Shutters, Porch railing, and arch- Benjamin Moore 2115-10 Bittersweet

    Front door, Garage door, Garage door trim, and Crown (the two horizontal strips of siding above the garage door)- OC-7 Creamy white

    Eves siding and soffits- 2148-40 Light Khaki

    These colors are neutral and warm to complement your brick and bring out the cheerful features of your house such as the iron arch and garage door crown. Keep in mind that from inside my studio to the outside of your house, the colors may appear slightly different so, brush out test patches of these colors before investing in paint and a service. I'd be happy to review pictures or your home with the brush outs and make any needed adjustments.

    Charming little house, Candice!
