Do you do remote color consultation’s? I have a Terra Cotta roof and flag stone on the walkway. I like the creamy/off whites for the base color. I have white vinyl windows. I have a three car garage facing the street, assume I would paint the garage doors the color of the house. Please let me know if you are able to do a remote consultation. Thank you
I love Swiss coffee for interiors. It can be a bit too much of a bright white color on the exterior, depending on the amount do shade your home receives.
Your videos are the best and so informative. Good timing too. I just painted my exterior sw Tempe Star with pure white trim. Stopped the trim because it looks completely stark. I’m thinking oyster white or city loft
Thanks! I have seen deep blue exteriors with both true white trim and with more of a cream trim. Both look good, just a matter of what your preference is.
my home is in an area in the mountains the gets a lot of snow so I need a white that won't look dingy in the snow - I'm liking the china white by Benjamin Moore but wondering if you have other suggestions that would stand up with a lot of fresh white snow?
I think this color combination has an expiration date that is fast approaching. If you love it, go for it, though. I would probably go a bit darker and use a body color like shoji white.
Thanks for your video. I'm choosing white paint colours for my exterior. I love all your suggestions. I have a traditional tutor home and want a layered white and white look. Can the body be a lower LRV and the trim be a different lighter white. Also, can I do warm whites for a south east facing home? I've read that this exposure should have cooler colours. Thank you!
I suppose you could layer whites, but the freshest option will be to choose a white that you carry on the trim, too. Changing sheens helps, as the higher the sheen the more light it reflects. There's too many variances to say yes this will work all the time. The paler cream/off-white you go, the weirder it will look to have a true white trim color.
What’s the best color for brownish-red roofs and the neighborhood houses in warm, neutral browns/ earth colors? What is a good combination for the brownish-red roof; we can’t decide on the color of everything, like the door, window trims, and the gutters. We aim to make our “the smallest house in the neighborhood” more appealing and charming but with a modern farmhouse feel.
Loving your videos & getting ready to paint our exterior! Balboa Mist is the closest of these video options that may work with our stacked stone but still might be too light for me. Do you have any warm neutrals, just a bit deeper, that you love more in the LRV 50's range? Also, our neighbor's house is white. So far, SW Shitake is the closest I've found but it's a little yellow for me. Love the warm grays or greige. Any help would be great and so appreciated.
Our home is surrounded by Tall evergreen trees. If one of the suggested paints have a green undertone, will that make the green in the paint come forward? The back of our home is in bright sun but the front is shady most of the day.
OOOO, what white or off white would go with iron Ore Trim? The Barn is Iron Ore on the property so the house will eventually have the same trim. We have been searching for a Sherwin Williams soft white to complement the Iron Ore barn and eventually trim.
For a classic look, I love pairing iron ore with sw shoji white. If you want a more modern farmhouse look you can try china white, white dove or alabaster.
