@jazmina88 I am kind of partial to those Cape Cod style houses with old nets and lobster traps and buoys and whatnot hanging off the eaves or attached to the walls. Or maybe they are piled somewhere in the yard. Whatever.
I live in a historically designated neighborhood. We have yellow and red brick, gray and green slate roofs. In theory, historically correct paint colors complement the other building materials.
Is it a red asphalt shingle roof? What is the style of the house? How many floors? How far do the eaves overhang? Can anyone even see the roof? How bright is the red?
I think one way to go would be a bright white, like in the Mediterranean. You could pretend there was sun all the time.
Blue? Maybe—if you had purple trim or something like that. Or white trim. Here’s a site that let’s you play around with colors—I think. You might like the grayish-blue.
When I googled “red roofed houses” most of the colder climate houses used white. The warmer climed houses seemed to use a light tan or yellow color—earthy tones.
Not look what you’ve made me do! Do not encourage me! I have no eye for color. I believe in the three cardinal colors and the next three and maybe the next six, but that’s it. Everything else is a fabrication of the minds of women and artists. Men have no business thinking about color or decorations or any of that!
