What color siding would be in motion better beside a red brick house?
Answers: OK, since most of what is on the pretence of your house is red or red based in temper (brick, bronze window frames), let's move with a complimentary color also on your house but one I'll bet you didn't even catch sight of. I believe that the brick is the primary visual element of your house, beside accents such as doors and shutters being minor. Holding all those bricks together is mortar...up close, you can see it is a greenish gray. The size of the mortar joints is small however within relation to the size of the house. Knowing this gives us some latitude when picking a siding color to compliment the bricks. Your eye will want very defectively to believe that a "putty" type of color matches the mortar. A very nice independent, not too light and not too dark to stir with the brick would be Benjamin Moore's HC-95, Sag Harbor Gray, another would be HC-111, Nantucket Gray. Both will be complimentary to the brick and will show it off. See if you can find a siding that comes close to one of those colors. Then I would steal a memo from the brick and paint the door a lucious dark reddish brown as an elocution, HC-64, Townsend Harbor Brown. Ordinarily I would pick another color for shutters but in this instance you have adequate going on, paint the shutters the same as the siding. Voila! a tasteful and long wearing color scheme next to sophistication. You didn't mention your roof color but unless you have a green roof, this will work marvelously with of late about any other color.
Best,
