So what colours should you consider?

Whether light or dark, exterior paint colours can set the scene and also create the first impression for your entire residence. Our suggestion – consider your road and your neighbours. What do the other homes on your block look like? Are the colours muted, contrasting or a mix of tones? Have a look around at colours and styles that draw you in before making your final decision.

Light tones

Have you noticed that larger estates are often painted white? This is because lighter paint colours often have the ability to make a building appear larger than it is. White is also the most common colour in classic architecture and is often used in traditional styled buildings.

Dark shades

Darker colours are a fun way to add drama to the exterior of a building. If your home has detailed architecture such as pillars or interesting trim, you could use darker colours as an accent. This will help to create definition and also highlight the lighter colours. Darker accents or dark bands of trim will make your house look a little smaller, but will also draw more attention to the finer details.
