Boring Mon. night question. Ideal color for a house

[lulu13]

What is your ideal color for exterior paint for house? I have been sold on white for years now but now I am really liking a medium to light gray.

To me it totally depends on the house.  That is a cop out answer, but it's true.

I love that!

My dream is a cape cod style, light-medium gray, with a dark roof, and teal Front door.

I love that gray. I am such a sucker for gray right now.

Our city had a huge stone deposit or something. 90% of the homes here are stone.

Unlike ours. Some pink,peach, brown monstrosity with a gray metal roof

We want to re-paint our house a dark taupe on the outside with dark green/teal shutters.

I'm a fan of gray and stone.

My dream house looks like this.




If no stone, I like gray with white and red:

Red brick.

Mine is Khaki. I think it fits the house. The shutters and door are dark green though. I DONOT LIKE. I think I will change the door to red, and the shutters to black. Or all to black.

I like our white house, but it's a bitch to keep it looking nice.

Light taupe with black trim

ETA: with some white trim thrown in too (like Booze Raccoon's picture).
