Highlight your home’s best features with smart colour choices.
A new coat of exterior paint has the ability to instantly enhance the look of your home and make it feel fresh and inviting. The best colour combinations are the ones that highlight the most beautiful features of your home, help to disguise flaws, and boost the market value of your house.
If you have a country-style home or a palatial villa, look to pastel, chalky tones or try a textured paint to create a weathered look. Neutrals and greys make contemporary homes look slick and stylish, while bolder, brighter shades work well when used as accent shades on front doors and balconies.
It's also essential to consider the architecture of your home. If you have a home with beautiful woodwork or intricate details, you can use a neutral colour palette to make those features stand out. Using a contrasting colour on window trims can add depth and interest to your home's exterior.
When choosing an exterior paint color, it's important to test the colours on a small area of your home first. The natural lighting of your home can change the way the paint looks at different times of the day. So it's best to test the colour under different lighting conditions before committing to a specific shade.
