Question:

White house with beige windows (outside) Black roof?

We just painted our house white (very white) with a black roof. The problem is the windows are a light beige. What color do we do all trim, gutters and colums on the house. If we do white, the windows will be the only thing that is beige. Would beige windows and trim look bad with such a white house?

Answer:

Yes beige would be bad! Try slate grays and blues, maybe even some gray toned greens.
Try some grey browns or brown greys. Yes there are such things. Get some paint chips from a paint store and look at them next to a piece of white paper. To be able to see the brownness of a color hold the chip next to a pure grey or blue grey then the amount of brown in the paint will become apparent. Think of doing the front door too, if it's not a natural wood.
