Interiors may get all the buzz but Exteriors are fun, too! Here's how most Design Firms (including us) select exterior colors for residential projects:
1. Look at the Architecture - As interior designers, we have to make sure we take in all components of the home including its architectural style, age, and any unique features.
2. Consider Surroundings: We don't just look at the architecture of the home but what neighborhood its in and the surrounding environment's design.
3. Determine Mood + Style: While we consider the architecture of the home and its surroundings environment, it's also important to consider the mood we want the exterior to convey. Does our client want the exterior to be inviting or calming? If so, we would go with warm colors for a more inviting home or cool colors for a more peaceful exterior.
