5 Great Exterior Color Schemes for Your Home

The exterior color of your home can give a first impression to neighbors and passersby. It can reflect the personality of the owner and give insight into the love and care a person has for their home. We have outlined a few exterior color schemes that allow your house to be unique and stand out in your neighborhood!

Black, White, and Ruby Red
The black, white, and ruby red color scheme provides a neutral base that allows the red to pop. Placing the color on the door creates an inviting feel that welcomes people in. The neutral house color creates a nice backdrop that allows the plant color to pop! Coordinating the color of your flowers with the color of your door creates a cohesive look that ties the home and yard together beautifully.

Black, White, and Mediterranean Blue
Based on color analysis, the color blue has positive affects on the mind and body. It invokes rest and can cause the body to produce chemicals that are calming and exude feelings of tranquility. The blue door feels inviting as well as allows the brick accents to pop giving the house a dynamic feel without chaos.

Canary Yellow and Soft Gray
Most modern style homes go for a neutral look, but this yellow makes a statement! The balance from the soft gray balances the brightness of the yellow in a beautiful cohesion. The wood and concrete accents add a balance of neutral and earth tones allowing the yellow to pop without taking the stage completely.

Pale Yellow, Forest Green, and White
The classic cottage style benefits greatly from the soft yellow exterior. The dark green tones pop against the paleness of the yellow and ties in the green from the foliage. The white serves to soften the green and add flow and balance to the two colors.

Sage Green, Creamy White, and Blush Red
The sage green exterior borders on almost grey depending on the lighting of the day. The blush red door brings out the brick accents on the stairs and lining of the porch. The green from the plants pop against the reddish brown bark, brick and blush red door. The white breaks the two colors up to allow each color to make a statement without either of them being overbearing.
