Depressing House Color Observation

It occurs to me that there are only two paths for exterior colors. You choose a boring, traditional wall and trim color or, in the alternative, you do something "creative" that will be seen as "odd."

Here's Melissa Welsh: Best Sherwin Williams Exterior Paint Colors (youtube.com)

  • Alabaster (creamy white)
  • Shoji White - creamier
  • Repose Gray - hint of warmth
  • Accessible Beige - greige
  • Magnetic Gray - cool
  • Mega Greige - tan with purple undertone
  • Tavern Taupe
  • Felted Wool - medium warm gray (looks like taupe to me)
  • Gauntlet Gray - pretty dark
  • Granite Peak - looks blue ("blue/green gray")
  • Pewter Green - "go to dark green"
  • Homestead Brown - looks like a darker Felted Wool to me
