Painting your home exterior is a big project, and not knowing the right color to paint your home can add even more stress to the situation. To make things easier for you, we have compiled a list of the top colors for home exteriors in 2021. Our professionals have helped thousands of homeowners choose the perfect color for their homes. We even offer a free color consultation with any project. By the end of this article, you’ll be ready to hop outside with a paintbrush in hand and the feeling of the sun on your back.

Light Creamy Hues

The first colors we are going to go over are the classic ivory, beige and cream that litter neighborhoods in every region. In Shawnee Mission, these colors are especially in-style. While this color has been around for a long time, you can stay up to date by leaning toward creamier colors, such as off-white. If you’re not too excited about painting your entire exterior this shade, consider painting the trim of your home a creamy hue that can extenuate the good features. 

Dark Neutrals

On the other side of the color spectrum, we have our darker neutrals, such as Onyx, Dard Hunter Green, and Urban Bronze. These darker colors are great for making your house look more sleek and modern. If you are looking to get some sophistication to your home, our professionals recommend going this route. Black can also be great at hiding damage that may have happened to your home.

Pastel Rainbow Colors

If you’re not into going for the classic home exterior colors, there is no need to worry! Nearly all colors of the rainbow are trending for 2021. Pastel blue, green, pink, and yellow are great if you want a softer-looking exterior. For something that stands out a bit more, you could go darker with a mustard yellow, sage green, or colonial blue. These darker colors are great if you have white trim on your house, but are also beautiful all on their own.

Highlight the Wood

The last color trend we are going to go over in this article isn’t really a color at all. Instead, we are going to talk about how stained and painted wood is standing out beautifully in 2021. Wood is also becoming more popular in homes that are being built this year. Whether it is accents, front porches, or entire walls, wood is definitely in. Fortunately, most professional painters are also capable of completing your wood projects. CertaPro definitely is!
