Picking The Best Exterior Paint Colors - LS weighs in on Redfin

It’s one of the most common subjects we talk about with clients and a series of question we’re asked by many, many people struggling to find the golden calf of the design deities and paint gods - the right paint color, the right paint finish, the right combination of hues throughout a home’s interior spaces, and the right colors on the exterior of a house, as well. It can be paralyzing for most people. And when they say “You know what, let’s just paint it white and make it easy,” we want to cry laughing because holy smokes, there are hundreds upon hundreds of versions of white paint with varying depths, undertones, ranges of warmth and brightness, and they each change within every space, as the natural light comes and goes, so experiencing them within the actual space(s) is pretty vital to the selection process. Additionally, every manufacturer has its own specific color formula (which is, perhaps, why attempting to create a duplicate of your fave Farrow and Ball using Behr will never quite work, sorry to say) so no two white paints will ever be identical, really and truly.

Anyhow, the long and short of it is that PAINT-PICKING CAN BE PARALYZING, so when Redfin asked us to share a sliver of our expertise regarding “picking the best exterior paint colors for your home” to share with their readers, we were more than happy to oblige. Check out our tip via this link . . . the pics included here should clue you in. ;)
