I'm remodeling this Asian inspired Ranch home and need suggestions on exterior paint colors. Currenlty is a very muddy brown color. I was thinkg of a medium biege color for the house and confused if I should go darker on the trim or lighter. I want the house to have a more contemporary feel.  The roof is a japanese style and the landscaping is being cleaned up to incorporate more modern "zenlike" design with adding river rocks and plants with a purple hue. Also some landscaping will be moved around so the house is more visible. Also I'm installing a new garage door which will have four rectangular windows on top for a more contemporary look. What would you suggest?
