Finding the right combination of colors for your home can be tricky. We looked to some of our favorite designers and architects to find the tried-and-true paint color combinations to inspire your next exterior refresh. Like this first one of Lucy Williams’ gracious home painted in Benjamin Moore Dune White.
We love Lauren Elaine Interiors’ classic brick bungalow. Benjamin Moore Natural Cream serves as the backdrop that allows the Tarrytown Green front door to shine.
If you’re looking for a clean, classic white, Benjamin Moore White Dove might do the trick. It’s what architect Catherine Sloan used on this restored Nashville treasure. The slightly warm undertones ensures the white doesn’t come off too stark.
Blue and white always feels right, and Danielle Rollins nailed the balance here with Benjamin Moore’s Cloud White, Polo Blue and Blue Danube.
If you want something a little creamier than White Dove, Benjamin Moore’s Swiss Coffee is a popular option—for good reason. We love how the home captured by Cover Me in Ivy paired it here with Revere Pewter on the shutters and front door for a traditional, tonal look.
For a true Southern, Georgian-style home, the design duo at Canvas & Clay recommends Sherwin Williams Natural Choice 7011 with Farrow and Ball Railings No. 31 on the shutters. Railings can read black or navy, depending on the lighting, which provides the perfect contrast.
