    Do you do remote color consultation’s? I have a Terra Cotta roof and flag stone on the walkway. I like the creamy/off whites for the base color. I have white vinyl windows. I have a three car garage facing the street, assume I would paint the garage doors the color of the house. Please let me know if you are able to do a remote consultation. Thank you

      I love Swiss coffee for interiors. It can be a bit too much of a bright white color on the exterior, depending on the amount do shade your home receives.

    Thanks for your video. I'm choosing white paint colours for my exterior. I love all your suggestions. I have a traditional tutor home and want a layered white and white look. Can the body be a lower LRV and the trim be a different lighter white.
    Also, can I do warm whites for a south east facing home? I've read that this exposure should have cooler colours. Thank you!

    • @homelikeyoumeanit
      @homelikeyoumeanit  5 месяцев назад

      I suppose you could layer whites, but the freshest option will be to choose a white that you carry on the trim, too. Changing sheens helps, as the higher the sheen the more light it reflects. There's too many variances to say yes this will work all the time. The paler cream/off-white you go, the weirder it will look to have a true white trim color.

    Great video and explanation! We are about to merge into restoring our home because we found the original wood siding under the ugly vinyl. Any recommendations? Our house faces east. We don’t want the white to look beige but we are also scared of the white looking like a primer. We are looking into Alabaster, White Dove, Snowbound, Simply White

      Hi there! All of those colors will read true white outdoors. You likely want a color that’s a shade darker to achieve the look you’re going for.

    • @homelikeyoumeanit
      @homelikeyoumeanit  6 месяцев назад +1

      I think this color combination has an expiration date that is fast approaching. If you love it, go for it, though. I would probably go a bit darker and use a body color like shoji white.

      Possibly. Hard to make a recommendation without seeing it. You need to also consider your other fixed elements on your home, as china white might not be the right white.

    I truly enjoyed your video and thought you had many helpful tips. We have a warm brown/red brick and I thought I wanted a gray and went with essential gray and it is way too gray and not warm enough for the brick. Is there a "white" that you would recommend from your experience. The window trim is a taupe color. Thanks for any advice. Thanks

    my home is in an area in the mountains the gets a lot of snow so I need a white that won't look dingy in the snow - I'm liking the china white by Benjamin Moore but wondering if you have other suggestions that would stand up with a lot of fresh white snow?

    I put new siding on my north facing house in Certainteed natural clay. We also have a warm stone around our door and lower half of the house.

    Loving your videos & getting ready to paint our exterior! Balboa Mist is the closest of these video options that may work with our stacked stone but still might be too light for me. Do you have any warm neutrals, just a bit deeper, that you love more in the LRV 50's range? Also, our neighbor's house is white. So far, SW Shitake is the closest I've found but it's a little yellow for me. Love the warm grays or greige. Any help would be great and so appreciated.

    OOOO, what white or off white would go with iron Ore Trim? The Barn is Iron Ore on the property so the house will eventually have the same trim. We have been searching for a Sherwin Williams soft white to complement the Iron Ore barn and eventually trim.

      For a classic look, I love pairing iron ore with sw shoji white. If you want a more modern farmhouse look you can try china white, white dove or alabaster.

    What’s the best color for brownish-red roofs and the neighborhood houses in warm, neutral browns/ earth colors? What is a good combination for the brownish-red roof; we can’t decide on the color of everything, like the door, window trims, and the gutters. We aim to make our “the smallest house in the neighborhood” more appealing and charming but with a modern farmhouse feel.
