Changing the exterior paint of your house can completely transform it by adding value to the home and showing some personality. In 2018, trends will cater to bright hues and more pastel tones that you can use to create a balanced look. To help you find some inspiration for your exterior paint change, Harbour Painting in New London County, CT, shares five top trends to consider.

5 Exterior Paint Color Trends to Try in 2018

1. Caliente

If you want to have the boldest house on the block, it’s time to try Benjamin Moore’s color of the year: Caliente AF-290. This bright hue serves as an excellent exterior paint accent color. Use it on one wall of your home to cover shutters or for your window trim. 

2. Wolf Gray

As modern homes grow in popularity, so does the monochromatic color scheme. Set the tune for your contemporary house by painting the outside a cool Wolf Gray 2127-40. 

3. Golden Retriever

For Southwestern-inspired houses, it’s all about sticking with natural hues. If you’re considering one of the more vibrant tones, go with Golden Retriever 2165-30 for your house. This yellow hue is warm and earthy, perfect for a home that frequently hosts loved ones and get-togethers.

4. Moonshine

Skip the labor-intensive exterior paint routine associated with bright white and instead opt for Moonshine 2140-60. This lower-maintenance color is a darker shade of white and will better hold up to years of weathering.

5. Carolina Gull

This calming grey-green paint is perfect for coastal houses. The striking color is the perfect natural hue to help your house blend in with the greenery while standing out against the gorgeous blue sky.
