Houses With Dark Grey Roofs

Gray can have undertones of blue green or violet.

Houses with dark grey roofs.

A black painted gable vent and charcoal gray steps take their color cue from the home s metal roof. Black a contrasting shade of gray white green or blue can all pair nicely with a gray brick or painted house. White and grey are both neutrals. The dark paint finishes and white surfaces enhance the home s historic country profile and complement its river rock foundation.

For a more traditional look a sunny light yellow pairs beautifully with a light gray roof. Now here s the blending principle. A solid black roof on a home with dark brown wood siding creates a boring combination. If you paint your house white and pair it with grey shingles on the roof paint the trim or shutters on your house grey as well.

For a more edgy look try a brighter yellow with a dark gray roof. White is a conventional traditional color to paint a house. White is added to black to create grey. Gray black darker shades of brown and some softer shades of green think celadon or grayish green can all look lovely with a red brick or similar home.

The same home with shingles that have a charcoal base but flecked with greens tans and browns would be far more appealing. Yellow and gray is a classic color pairing that works well on all types of houses. White trim white siding and white railings give this farmhouse spick and span appeal.
