I like those colors, but I think I would like something lighter, the front has that inset porch and it looks so dark because of the dark colors, maybe some type of desert color with a white trim, I am not sure if I will be able to get windows in the bronze in the sizes I need, the back door is a slider and getting replaced next week with a french door I just got, I had to buy a white door , only one I could find to fit the opening. do you have any pics of lighter shades of tan ? I am going to be starting on the shop very soon and its the biggest part to paint, most of the house is brick and very little painting. thanks for your help, Jim

Keep to lighter tones.





Siding is listed as a Cabot Semi-Solid Stain in Spanish Moss. Garage doors are listed as Sherwin Williams Garden Gate (SW6167) and the trim is listed as Sherwin Willimas Saw Dust (SW6158).

you can use a lighter color - as in the garage green tone to accent the railing cap and or the 2" exposed roof line (where gutters would be) - but not the whole fascia, just a portion of it.

There is a transparent paint that emulates the stain look you can use to get that modeled look.

Food for thought.

Good Luck.!
