Cream Facade with rational windows.

Hi All,

I have a house with a cream facade ("Ivory Stone" is the exact colour) and have the 'orangey' coloured Rational wood window frames and door. The door and frames are fantastic and large but I have grown tired of the wood's colour and wish to change it.I was thinking french grey or white or possibly a dark grey on the windows and a red door. I am not set on window frames being the same colour as the door. As you can see I have a few differenct ideas but I just can't decide! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Byn the way it is not a very big house compared to some feartured on the site.

ciao,

Andy

    Photos of house? Here's "cream" with gray. And a "cream" with white. Are these better than yours? Idea: change color of front door to harmonize with the trim and see if you like that?

    Hi All - have uploaded a photo of the house now and lookng for any ideas on door colour and window frames. I am thinking French Grey (greeny-grey) with the sills and band across the centre of th house painted the same cream colour that the house is. ciao Andy

    I found your house in your ideabook area.
    Usually I do not like to cut a house in half with painted trim, but I love this house I found. The inner windows R painted white but I'd paint all windows, sills, trim & band across house, that enchanting French-gray-green. The house in photo seems more buff than cream.
