The right exterior colors will accentuate your home’s key aspects, increase property value and conceal design flaws. They will also make your home more beautiful. With so many available options, however, coming up with the best palette can be challenging. A simple mistake can create a jarring effect, which is why it’s important to weigh your choices carefully.

As the top siding installation service provider, Rapid Roofing can help you achieve a visually appealing exterior. We share some tips on creating a harmonious color palette:

Consider Your Home’s Architecture – The exterior elements of your home need to be a match for your home’s architecture. As an experienced siding expert, we offer a variety of products that will work with any kind of home. During our meetings, we will talk about our available colors in detail and suggest shades that match your home’s style.
Vary Your Shades – Having a single color for your exterior color palette requires proper planning; otherwise, it may end up looking bland. Determine an accent piece on your exterior, such as trim or shutters, and paint them either a lighter or darker shade than your main color. Furthermore, pick a complementary color for your door to create a stunning focal point.
Use the Materials for Inspiration – Whether you have a traditional or modern home, you can creatively showcase color and pattern even if your palette is neutral. Using bricks of all shapes and sizes, for instance, is a smart way to highlight your home’s main hue. Meanwhile, functional accents, such as copper gutters, also provide gloss and flair to your exterior scheme. If you have a cool color palette, you can warm it up by incorporating wood into the facade.
Contrast Your Landscape – Take a look at your landscaping as you think about the visual effect you want for your home. If your home is surrounded by greenery, you can pick colors that will make it recede into the nearby trees and plants. Meanwhile, if you want to make your home stand out, opt for bright colors. Pastel shades with white accents offer an excellent contrast to the lush green background without being overwhelming.
