Hi, the color for the siding is Dorian Gray sw7017 from Sherwin Williams. The shutters are vinyl and these were replaced in black.

We had them installed on all the front facing windows, so that was 3 x large windows in MDF and 2 x smaller (but not tiny) bathroom windows which are in some kind of upvc due to the location. They all look the same though, colour, slat size etc. We used Hillary's in the end, 10 weeks lead time as they come on a slow boat from China, and installed in less than half a day. The total price was just under £2k (they had a 1/2 price sale on and I was very close to the financial year year end when I ordered so think that's why I got such a bargain price) My other alternative was to have made to measure roman blinds, which weren't going to solve our privacy issues, and I'd worked out they would have cost the same. I would recommend Hillary's, quick and easy to order, no problems. (p.s, they are really easy to clean, much easier than vertical blinds)

Thanks to all for the laugh out loud - literally - enjoyment in this latest banter. I do love this forum so much! If anyone thinks they can't wear a particular colour take a look at Zandra Rhodes!!!

Maison de Maitre what colour shutters?
Q

Absolutely that's why when I make a trip to the UK I make sure I've decided what colours I'm going to use and purchase there. Unfortunately I'm dithering on the colour of the shutters as my driveway at the moment has awful grey gravel which I will change to a creamy colour so it makes the front of the house look quite drab.

What colour would you use to replace the red trim?
Q
Comments (4)
The brick red stands out, and not in a good way - the red makes your house look yellow. Also, I have never seen trim done like that before (along the bottom of the house and at the corners??). I mean this kindly, but that does not look good. In addition, there is no need to carry the trim color to the fence, and the bench, and the retaining wall....it's way too much, in any color. I would remove that trim by painting it the same cream as the house. This would be much fresher than keeping that trim, in any color. For an accent color, consider painting just the fascia. It would be subtle and classic. With cream, you could do a navy, a white, a gray. Not sure about green - I just don't have experience with it. But you have several colors going on without the accent color, so there is already plenty to look at. No need to paint everything from the lawn to the lane the same color as the trim, or the same color as the house itself. Just put the trim color in one spot (aside from the house) - like the top of the fence/retaining wall OR the strip on the bottom of the fence that is red. Not both! Also, no need to paint the main part of the fence the same color as the house. For example, let's say you choose navy for an accent color, so the fascia and top of the fence are navy. The rest of the fence can be a complementary color - tan, gray, brown would all look good with navy and cream. I hope you'll post photos after you're finished! Very pretty house
