Exterior - Stone and Paint Combinations with Appeal
X Cari's #1 choice so far - Love, love, love the paint color/siding style and wider panels on the vertical siding. I also think the stone and railing system are beautiful. The grey window trim is striking, too. The roof shingle goes well, too. This might be my favorite :) Will this siding style work well with our house? It's a Visbeen design. Next two pictures are this house, too. MARK LIKES THIS AS WELL.
X This photo caught Cari's attention re. door trim matched to garage color vs. paint trim. Also find garage door attractive. Mark added this comment "I THINK I WOULD BE MORE INCLINED TO SELECT THE FRONT DOOR STYLE AND THEN COLOR. NOT SURE I MATCHING THE FRONT DOOR TO THE GARAGE DOORS IS NECESSARY BUT I WOULD DEFER TO YOU ON THAT."
This is a grey/green. Not our favorite colors but the choices they made came together well. BODY COLOR: P & L – 33-21 Diplomat Gray TRIM COLOR: Parker Paint – Tree Bark, CL 2911W. Stone is a thin stone veneer product called Montana Ledgestone available in the Seattle area at Marenakos. http://www.marenakos.com/ 40 year. Pabco Premier composition shingles. Color: Antique Black. The standing seam metal is NuRay Series 1000 in 24 gauge Style: Series 1000 BASF UltraCool Kynar 500 reflective coating.Color: Dark Bronze.
Garage doors are attractive and yet don't match the entry door. Perhaps we'd be okay with white garage doors...
X Cari's note -benjamin moore stone gray - is it too dark? Again the white doors are attractive to me. This is a Visbeen design. Mark's comment -NOT TOO BAD BUT MAYBE A LITTLE LIGHTER...MORE IN THE GREY/BLUE COLOR SCHEME.
There is something about the choices made on this house that Cari likes --- even though the design is very different from what we're doing, Cari wants to share it with Julie. It's peaceful and timeless.
Cari's comment - This is a beautiful design that has shingled siding with the vertical siding at top. It works great! Colors wouldn't work for us as well as it does here.
X classic grey and white shingle style - Both Cari and Mark like it. Entry has painted trim, but it's only around the outside & doesn't take away from entry door too much.
interesting look
