Off-White
For the overly cautious, off-white is widely accepted as an exterior color. This works particularly well if your home has exterior design elements like brick or shutters. The color will let them stand out in a positive way. You can always create a pop of color for interest in blue shutters or a red door.
Gray
Gray is popular if it’s done well. It’s important to pair a barely gray with a vibrant color in trim. Even monochromatic light and dark gray can draw attention for the right reasons. The color works well in lush landscapes with green surrounding it. It makes your home look serene among the bright colors.
Taupe
Another neutral landing on popular charts is taupe. While it’s both classic and neutral, it allows the character of your home to take center stage. Most homeowners report that they like this color because it’s easy to see their own touches against it.
Putty
Going with natural colors will always work. Putty is a newer blend of gray and brown that resembles stone. The color works well in coastal settings and forest areas alike. It’s another color that is good to pair with black or red front doors.
Blue Gray
Some owners will feel like the colors are too boring for their taste. A newer choice is blue gray which brings a nautical feel to a house. It’s a more vivid color but will work as a neutral. Pair it with white shutters and trim and you’ll have a stylish home with wide appeal.
Light Blue
It used to be blue was only for use near the water. More recently, homes are going blue regardless of natural surroundings. A light blue combined with a darker color on trim creates a serene look that stands out.
