Paint colour to go with old yellow brick

[MoonlightandMusic]

Any ideas for a strong-ish, warm, exterior paint to go with old yellow brick?

Want to do the garden walls - it's south facing, but not huge about 40' (length) x 20' (width).
Colour of the house-brick is similar to the left-hand side house in the picture. I've tried a lot of creams/yellows and they just don't work.

All suggestions gratefully received!

Terracotta.

Or is that too 90s?

Have a look at pictures of old Cotswold stone ( yellow stone) houses and see what people have painted doors, fences etc. They might be helpful for ideas.

Definitely not too 90's but too orangey to go with the (somewhat grey-grubby) yellow

what about something like F&B string, chord, new white or lime white?

Thanks JT, will do.

Hadn't realised F&B do exterior paint too - must look into that.

hhhhm - oh yes - i may be wrong there, but maybe you could get a masonry paint mixed in a similar colour? No idea about external paints having never painted anything other than wood externally!

The blue door-the white fence and the orangey feature bricks in the picture look good with the yellow brick. How about one of those?

I do like the blue, but worried about it being too cold in winter. DH has vetoed pure white for a similar reason and the feature bricks only look good in small doses.

I've just realised - I'm turning into one of those OP's aren't I?

langland - on the plus side it seems that you are correct, F&B do do exterior paint.

Langlandgirl's String and chord F&B do look feasible to me - anything will look much stronger over such a big area. So a murky version of one of the two might work. Or maybe a greyish like the pointing between the bricks.

I hate picking colours, especially for large areas! Let us know what you pick (nosey).

Green? is there a plant/bush in the garden that you like the shade of?

Well, there's a couple of artichoke/cardoons I like, and a lamia with sort of silvery leaves - hmm.

Anyone know anything about Little Greene's Kitchen Green or Oak Apple?

Maybe that silvery grey colour that aged teak goes (out of doors) would work.

I'd go with a white with a greeny undertone, or a pale greeny grey - like olive tree leaves
