It is a double front, hip roof house, with one front further out than the other, and rather plain with big windows. What is your suggestion on the best white to go with the warm orangey-red roof tile.Shell1961https://www.blogger.com/profile/16570122287388661191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7262742140211948230.post-81691118894865562082014-05-16T16:37:20.947+10:002014-05-16T16:37:20.947+10:00Avoid cloud white, recently started my exterior pa...Avoid cloud white, recently started my exterior painting and cloud white is just too yellow, in fact any shady area looked virtually a pale yellow, sort of like a room that has had two chain smokers in it for about five years.

The roof is pinkish-yellowish color (painted with Shield coat - FANTAN). I thought Dulux Whisper White with a couple of feature walls with Dulux Equanimity colors would be ok. Gutter/Facsia/sofits/gable etc can be Dulux WhiteOnWhite (gloss) I was thinking. What do you think? Whisper White is warm with creamy touch, would it go with Equanimity which is a bit of greyish-blue?

Roof, railings and fencing are all Colourbond Surfmist but surfmist doesn't go with window frames - could we use Whisper White or do you have any other suggestions - thinking of doing the guttering and fascia a colour similar to the window frames plus a grey for an ascent.

We agonised over whites when we painted it eight years ago. So, so happy with it as our house is a fibro shack and we didn't want a cold white. We've recently painted the outside of our house and along with blue tones we used 'Vivid White', 'White Duck' and 'Salt Spray'.

I have chosen a gorgeous light cool grey colour but the white colour is a plain builders white and wow, it is too bright. I am going to try Lexion white as you said it looks good with light grey.
