Hello everyone!

We are about to make the final decision on our exterior paint color and I would appreciate your inspiration. Ideally with the exact color code in your color system.

We have experimented with various online color visualizers. We like shades in the range of sand / greige / taupe, leaning towards the lighter side.
The front door will be dark gray (iron mica), and the windows are, as usual, white.
I don’t want a completely white facade because then the windows would have too little contrast.

Feel free to share other ideas or suggestions as well; they don’t necessarily have to be along the lines I mentioned. =)

I expected more enthusiasm here. Our painters were on site this week, and today the scaffolding was taken down—
*drumroll*

Two-story green house with solar panels, extension, and wooden shed at construction site.

(We ran out of paint for the utility room... that will be done later.
The idea for sage green came from this forum, I think even from your thread? The color is GIMA Verde 18431.)

Oh, that sage green is really nice :O
I had considered it too, but I’m worried it might clash with the plants since it’s a different shade of green, especially if you plant them in front of the house. But the color is definitely beautiful, congratulations!

Shown here many times before… gladly again. The window shutters were finally painted in color RAL 7033 (cement gray). Colors were selected in 2016 with the Brillux Color Designer.

We are currently leaning strongly towards something like that as well. My husband saw your house and said he really likes the color too. Being in agreement on that is already worth a lot =D

I’m sticking to my suggestions of lilac/saffron or banana/cherry – if that feels too safe, cherry can also be varied into campari ;-)
