1895 Victorian

The homeowner prefered to keep the current blue body color but wanted a new trim and gable color. The light blue gable is way too light. The gable color should be darker than the body however since the body is so dark an equal shade should be used. The light blue is also a very cool color that does not work with the warm cream trim color. It still amazes me how people try to “Victorianize” their houses by adding a random peach window in the gable (which has no relation to the other window color), peach brackets under the gable and a peach side door. This can really ruin a house.
