Today marks the beginning of Daylight Savings Time and with longer, sunny days ahead, cue in the spring cleaning and home improvement projects ahead. Many home owners are looking for ways to spruce up their homes. One way to do so is by changing the paint on the exterior of your home.
As interior design and architecture tend to go hand in hand, interior designers are often asked to assist in the selection of paint for home exteriors due to their color consulting skills and tips.
“With so many paint colors, finishes, and factors to consider when undertaking an exterior paint update, choosing a paint color can seem like an intimidating decision to make.”
While this can tend to be a big job, here are 3 easy tips:
Select colors that complement the period of your home.
Divide your home into 3 sections when selecting paint colors:
Siding color
Trim color
Door and/or Shutter color
Lastly, place the samples at the front of your home, or an area where you can see all 3 paint selections working together, and observe them during different times of the day.
