Exterior Paint Colors?



I live in a Townhome but have the only freestanding unit so I am not attached to other homes. I have been given the go ahead to paint the exterior of my unit if I so choose. What color do you think would look best? Here's a link to my home http://www.jlezquerra.com/english/Villas/alabanas.htm
I do have a POA but they have OK'd our painting it a different color.

1Well... Pink is out, Mexican red ain't an option either.... LMAO

That sure is a lot of surface area..

Something earthy that's for sure.. Don't do a flesh tone.. Make it look like a GIANT, well, you know..

With that architecture it sure limits the colour choices. Got to go light, light colours, pale… Pale yellow, Pale Cadmium Red Light, Like a VERY light terra cotta, I'd use a shaded version of the same colour for accents on the porch, in window areas.


Good luck…
