How to choose Exterior Colours
Well-chosen Exterior colours can give your house a striking curb appeal.
But it might be worth considering the following when choosing your next exterior colour palette:
Does your house have a certain style?
Choose colours that complement the architectural style of your home. Traditional homes may look best with more classic, neutral colours, while contemporary homes may benefit from bolder, brighter hues.
In what kind of environment is your house located?
Look at the colours of the natural surroundings, such as the trees and foliage, and consider how the colours of your home will fit in with the landscape. What colours are your neighbouring houses? Do you want your house to complement them, or stand out?
Think about the overall look you want to achieve.
Do you want a dramatic, eye-catching look or a more subtle, understated appearance? Choose colours that will help you achieve the desired look. Desaturated or ‘greyed out’ colours will give your house a more soft, mature look. While saturated, more colourful hues will make your house more exciting and vibrant.
Test the colours.
It's a good idea to test the colours before committing to them. There are a variety of ways to do this. Talk to Josh about paint sample boards, digital sample colour palettes and tester pots.
