Foolproof Paint Colors for Your Colorado Home
Posted on July 17, 2020
No matter if your house is chipping and peeling, or you are just looking for a change in color, a spring exterior paint job could be just the ticket. To get you started, here are foolproof paint colors for your Colorado home.
Taupe
Let’s begin on the safe end of the color spectrum. Choosing a neutral color is safe and ensures you will have a home with wide appeal should you decide to sell in the future. Pair the color with a cream trim for windows and doors. If you have shutters or other architectural elements, try adding a deep brown for them. It’s a clean, monochromatic color scheme that works on all styles of home. It’s particularly successful here with our rich greens to surround it.
Gray
Whether you lean dark charcoal or barely there gray, the color is a modern take on the timeless beige. There are so many options with undertones that you can create a color all your own. Try a bit of red or purple to create a mauve neutral without being bold. Working with accent colors is easy since almost any will work. Particularly successful ones include rust, olive and cream.
Blue
Blue evokes calm and serenity, two feelings you always want to come home to. Turn your house into a clear blue sky or pristine lake with the right color. While our state might be landlocked, that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the calming color of the ocean on your home. Our color specialists have found that from baby blue to bold navy, blues work on your house. Try it with a crisp white trim to set off the color.
Sage
We are more than a mile above sea level, which gives us the perfect climate for plenty of greenery and trees. With the plethora of aspens surrounding us, they create the perfect backdrop for a sage home. The color works really well with the bricks and stones that a lot of our homes have. For shutters and trim, pair a dark green and white with it.
Personal Preference
Remember while choosing a color for your home that it is your home. The color should appeal to you and your family since you’ll be the ones enjoying it. Start with colors that you enjoy and work from there.
