A fresh coat of paint can do wonders for your home’s curb appeal and overall aesthetic. If you’re getting ready to embark on the exterior painting process with our help, one of the things you need to do is pick the color for your home’s exterior.
Although picking a color for your home can be fun and exciting, we also recognize that it can be overwhelming. In this blog, we’d like to share some of our top tips for picking out a color before your exterior painting project.
- Identify your home’s architectural design. Different architectural styles lend themselves to certain color schemes. Research your home’s architectural style and look for traditional color palettes that complement its design.
- Pay attention to your landscape. Consider your home’s surrounding environment, including landscaping, neighboring homes, and natural features, like trees and bushes. You want your home’s exterior color to harmonize with its surroundings instead of clashing with them. Consider how the new paint color will look in different seasons and lighting conditions as well.
- Sample a few colors. Don’t rely solely on paint chips or digital representations of colors. Purchase sample pots of paint and apply them to a small section of your home’s exterior to see how they will look in natural light. Observe the colors at different times of the day to get a sense of how they’ll look in different lighting conditions.
