It’s not as striking as pacific blue but it’s not as dull as the granite gray. <br /><br />Aubrey Mullinshttp://www.exteriabp.com/about-exteria-siding-manufacturernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553524270157458069.post-67273602316839993432012-12-03T14:58:48.232-06:002012-12-03T14:58:48.232-06:00“You will make compromises.

The design and how you want your house to look will come after because after all, it will be the one to fuel the extent of what you can do for your house design and materials.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.walkercontracting.ca/products-services/roofings/" rel="nofollow">Kermit Lukacs</a><br />Kermit Lukacshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17716187948152586419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553524270157458069.post-52641148827792042672012-11-21T11:19:09.824-06:002012-11-21T11:19:09.824-06:00For me, either of the first two options would be a...For me, either of the first two options would be appealing. The Pacific Blue is the closest shade to the roof. Unless, you want a one-color exterior, I guess it would be perfect. That’s just my opinion. Anyway, what did you pick for the house? :)Otis Kunklehttp://www.hometechexterior.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553524270157458069.post-4001965427882264802012-11-15T11:53:28.283-06:002012-11-15T11:53:28.283-06:00I was going to vote for Pacific Blue as the color ...I was going to vote for Pacific Blue as the color for your siding, but then I saw that you have a dark-colored roof (well done in keeping with the awesome trend). Dark on dark doesn’t always work out great on houses, unless it’s an earthier tone. Since you’ve got a dark roof, I’m also voting for Granite Gray.

The trend is toward more saturated colors on both the exterior and interiors.

The contrast of colors between the siding and roof would be a great combination. By the way, make sure that your roof is inspected annually so that you can patch up any small damage that may have occurred.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.roofpromemphis.com/products-services/roofers-in-memphis-tn-maintenance/" rel="nofollow">Elizabeth Hoffnung</a><br />Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10003766264973995599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553524270157458069.post-20435657304983206242012-11-06T10:34:48.267-06:002012-11-06T10:34:48.267-06:00I vote for granite gray.

Hard to know from photos though, and they are all nice colors. You will be perfectly happy with it once you add details (shutters, flowerboxes, etc.) it really just becomes a backdrop. This has been my own experience anyway! I'm a new follower and loving seeing your progress. - CherylDown Raspberry Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14307699809498234482noreply@blogger.com
