The facade is the letter of any house and, although sometimes we do not, says a lot about its interior and the inhabitants that live in it. Therefore, it is important to keep this part of the house, taking care of ornamental elements, architectural features, materials, vegetation, and, of course, the colors.


When choosing the color for the facade is important to consider the environment, since the building will be in the same visual field. So, think on factors such as light, contrast, texture of the surface, the size of the painted area, and the distance and direction from the observed. It is also important to look at the color of the roof or external parameters and verify that there are restrictions palettes in your neighborhood or town. Taking all this into account, then we will tell you about the best colors for the facades.


Neutral colors


Although there is no ideal color for the facade of a house, the most used colors are neutral, especiallywhite . This repels the sun’s rays, making the walls are not too hot, so it is widely used in warm, coastal areas such as Andalusia. However, other neutral colors such as gray or black paint not used for fronts, although they may be soft medium gray and modern constructions.

Natural colors and muted


They are also recommended natural colors like beige and all shades of brown or colored ground .Furthermore, often choose low saturated or dull colors that are usually combined with white or a soft, dark tone of the same range.


Vivid colors


However, the bright colors are not usually a good alternative to paint walls, as they can get tired fast and look too loud because the natural light enhances the color and dominating its surroundings, which usually are neutral and muted colors.
