Shutters are a great way to revitalize your exterior and increase its curb appeal. In addition to being cost-effective, shutters can also help increase your home’s energy efficiency and regulate the available sunlight. With such a wide range of shades available, it can be difficult to choose a shutter color however.
Fortunately, here are some tips from Wholesale Shutter Co., Inc.:
Pay Attention to Your Home’s Style
Your windows are one of the most important elements of your home’s architecture, so your shutters should reflect that. If your home has a traditional style, classic white or black window shutters will work best. Contemporary or modern homes on the other hand, will look great with bolder hues like bright red or blue.
Since we provide custom shutters in Los Angeles, we can create personalized shutters in any color you prefer. Our designers will analyze your home’s current style and give you suggestions on which colors work best for your home’s style.
Work with Your Current Exterior
The biggest factor in selecting a color for your shutters is your home’s exterior. Match your planned shutter color with your home’s siding, your roof, and your window trim. If you want subtle shutters, stay within a few shades of your exterior color. Dark colored exteriors look good with shutters that are a few shades lighter, while light colored exteriors are the opposite. If you want to make a bold statement, choose a contrasting color. This will make your shutters and windows pop out.
Take Your Home’s Environment into Account
Take other homes into account when choosing your shutter colors, as well. You need to pick colors consistent with the houses in your neighborhood, so take a small tour. Pay attention to how light plays with color, in both your home and your neighbor’s home.
Take pictures if necessary during different times of the day. This is because colors change depending on how light behaves. Once you’ve narrowed down your shutter colors to a few choices, contact us to get the best quality discount shutters in Southern California.
