Working with an Exterior House Painter in Colorado Springs: Consider Your Natural Surroundings
When you’re ready to work with a professional painting contractor, you may or may not have a concrete idea about what color scheme you want for the exterior of your home. One of the things we love most about working with our residential clients is consulting on color choice. Here at Wright Prime & Paint, we’re not the house painters who will tell you to go to the hardware store and bring us the color sample you like, then just go doggedly to work. We take a more sophisticated, proactive approach to color choice because we consider ourselves more than just painters – we’re experts in home transformation.
Choosing the Right Exterior Paint Colors is an Art
The colors you choose for your exterior house paint can have startling impact, in the best possible way, if you’re working with painters who understand how color affects the appearance of each unique dwelling. While we’re happy to defer to our customers on a final color choice (because ultimately, the results have to make you happy), you can expect us to at least offer our informed opinion.
We have the experience, skill, and instincts to know that when choosing exterior paint colors, a variety of factors should be considered, including how the home appears in natural light at different times of the day, the style of the home, even the character of the neighborhood. But one factor that many people overlook is the natural environment surrounding the home.
How a Home’s Natural Setting Impacts Color Choice
A home that’s embraced by dense trees may stand out like a sore thumb with a shade that clashes harshly with the surrounding greenery. However, that same home can shine like a welcoming beacon of warmth with a softer, more natural shade that beautifully offsets a woodsy setting.
Other homes enjoy a proud position on a more open expanse of land, where a big sky serves as a brilliant backdrop, and distant natural features like a visible mountain range factor into the overall portrait of the home. In these settings, it’s ideal for the home and its striking natural background to compliment one another. Sometimes, a home becomes invisible in a picturesque setting, all because of an ill-chosen color.
Here in Colorado Springs, we’re blessed with truly gorgeous natural surroundings, and many homes – especially newer builds – are showcased on generous open plots that incorporate our region’s natural characteristics into picture-postcard curb appeal. That’s why it’s often important for homeowners in the Colorado Springs area to choose exterior paint that harmonizes with the landscape.
We all want our homes to look beautiful. Here in Colorado Springs, we as professional house painters have the treat of using our majestic terrain to enhance the beauty of our work with exterior house painting. Choosing the right colors allows the home itself to rival the beauty of resplendent skies, rolling hills, and even the Rockies.
