Help! House painting colours

4 replies

Our house is part black weatherboarding and part cream render. With orangey red roof tiles. We're stuck with the black and cream but my dilemma is what colour to paint the window and door frames. Currently they're a mishmash of black and cream. The lack of contrast (cream on cream etc) looks horrible. Should we paint them white, or a pale sage? Or another colour? House painter arrives this morning so tight for time! Thanks in advance

definitely pale sage over White
I thought blue at first, so that you have a good contrast with the roof tiles.

pale sage is nice, I was aiming for pale sage (as in thats what it looked on the colour chart) what we ended up with is duck egg, I love it and it really stands out.
