Quick poll time! Which front fish-scales look are you loving: keep that bold green strip or go all copper?

I'd love to hear your thought on fish-scale dilemma detail we are having on our 1905 Victorian Home. I can't decide if I want to keep the green stripe or should go all copper. What do you all think??

We recently completed a full exterior paint project (eventually, I'll upload the before and after's). I thought I would love the dark green stripe but now I am second guessing myself.

Nestled among tall pines, she does not compete with nature — she presides over it. That spire pierces the sky like a signature flourish at the bottom of an old-world contract.

W.A. Hart House 1109 Main St., Tarboro NC

This house exhibits a full-blown Neo-classical style rare in Tarboro. Located at 1109 Main Street, the house was completed ca. 1909 for William A. Hart. He was a highway commissioner for this region and a leading businessman. He established the William & Mary Hart Church in Leggett. The house features a full height portico with Corinthian columns with a one story flanking Ionic porch. Parts resemble the Frank Hart house near Battleboro community.

This house in South Windsor, Connecticut was built in 1788-1790 as the home of merchant and farmer John Watson. This style of house, with three stories and a low hip roof, was common in New England seaport towns such as Salem and Portsmouth during this period, but this is a rare inland example of this style in the Connecticut River Valley.

Twin spires rise like observatories for a more civilized era, their slate caps tipped in copper as if saluting the sky itself. Those blue-trimmed windows don’t simply frame the world — they curate it.

We’ve just started renovating The Old Central School in Gartly, Aberdeenshire, Scotland – a Victorian building from 1888, later extended in 1914. It was designed by Andrew Thomson, the architect behind Ardoe House and Aberdeen Art Gallery.

After closing in 1962 it was used to house cattle for a time, earning its nickname 'The Coo School'! We’re now on a mission to give it a new chapter as our family home, and thought some here might enjoy seeing the progress as we go!
