Advice Thoughts on new color scheme for exterior paint?

Hi. We are having our house repainted soon. Originally it was blue and the job quality wasn't great so it faded quite a bit. We are looking for an update and really liked the look of a dark green with dark trim. The rendering changed the color of the roof (which we aren't doing) and added stone accents (which look great but not part of the project). (Windows will also remain white but the trim around them will be painted)

From the inspiration rendering we are thinking pewter green for the siding, greenblack for the trim, and basket beige for the upper triangle sections (all Sherwin williams).

Painters also suggested iron ore for the trim as an alternative. Any thoughts or suggestions?

We have to replace our front door, help with color choice?

We have to replace our front door. We have these options: black, same green as our siding/wood accents, or leave the Spanish Cedar unstained and natural. These are just AI mockups so it’s not exact. For some reason the AI completely changed our flower beds lol we have stunning little lime hydrangeas and inkberry - AI is weird.

Or other option is to repaint the existing siding/woodwork entirely? Our brick is original and we like the buff brick color. We don’t want to paint the brick but are open to painting the siding/woodwork. House was built in 1943.

Which would you choose?

Help with brick/siding combo

0 Upvotes

First time home builder here!
We’re finally at the stage of bricking and painting siding! We decided to go with Acme White Bluff Brick and are now stuck between 3 different white paint colors from Sherwin Williams. We’re considering

  1. Alabaster
  2. White Duck
  3. Shoji white

Anyone here have any photos they could share of their actual builds if you used any of these? I was watching videos online and they’re all starting to blur together.

I don’t necessarily need the exterior paint to match my brick, but I want something that compliments it.

Thanks!

I’m trying to work with the color it is now, I feel like the trim and garage is too bright for the color of the house, also plan to paint the top small window( eyesore) same color of the wall to make it disappear in a way
Home is north facing
Thank you!
