White painted brick is a favorite exterior trend of ours. It is a timeless look that feels both fresh and modern yet Old World historical. We love the way that it can transform an old brick house, or add character to a new build. We used painted white brick on our Villa Bonita project and paired it with black windows and wood accents. It turned out so pretty. It’s a client favorite look as well, and we get lots of questions about it. Today we are answering a few of the most common. So if you are thinking about painting your brick, today’s post is a must read!
If you are not familiar with The Fox Group and their insane home exteriors, get ready for eye candy. These beautiful custom homes are timeless but show off some of our favorite exterior trends. You will love the painted brick, cedar shake roofs, custom woodwork, and perfect landscaping. Enjoy!
This home is beautifully understated so that the important details pop–the huge wrap around porch, the welcoming door with transom window, and the copper rain gutters. So pretty.
Last week we posted Q+A: Black or White Windows? and got a lot of feedback from all of you trying to make this decision. Both looks can be both beautiful and timeless, so go with what you love. Easier said than done? Sometimes you have to see it to envision it on your own home. Today, we’ve done the Pinterest searching for you. We have a rounded up of homes pairings similar in style but with different color windows. Take a look at each pair and decide which window color is more you–the timeless look of white or crisp modern black.
