We have new red door, darkish red and it has hint of orange. The roof is grey and it's a small victorian terrace house. At the moment around the door and window, is painted white. And the exterior brick has been painted magnolia (yellowy white). I was previously going with middleton pink (farrow and ball) for the house and have white around the door and the window but now think this will make the house look a bit cheap. My DP wants to go for contrasting yellow for the house but as I like fresh colours my instinct wants whole house to be fresh white and red door with grey roof (but undecided as this might make the house look cold.). We love farrow and ball colours so if you have any opinions would be appreciated!!!

How about a dark grey instead?
Not sure about pink with the red door (bit of a clash?) and yellow and red sounds a little harsh.
F&B CHarleston Grey is a super colour, very sophisticated and would work well with the grey (slate?) roof.

ooh now I'm tempted. I was thinking of grey but my children and DH would hate it...I'm going to take photo of my house and secretly disappear into farrow and ball shop for consultation...

Dark taupe is another option, say London Clay.
