Gray and Black

This cute cottage-style home, captured by @charmingaustintexas, features pale gray siding and pure black accents.

The black shutters, front door and bay window roof add beautiful contrast to the lighter gray body and white trim. The overall look is timeless, while offering a distinctive twist on the more common black-and-white exterior color scheme.

Dark Gray

If you’re looking for a bold, moody color, check out this home from @plumproexteriors. It features James Hardie siding in Iron Gray. Not quite black, but close! A dark gray exterior like this makes your home stand out among the rest.

Although dark gray may feel like a daring choice, it’s still a classic neutral that will look chic for many years to come.
