One of the greatest things about vinyl siding is its versatility. Not only is it rugged, but it can be a beautiful accent for your home! We thought we’d entice you with some 2021-2022 exterior color trends.

Two-Tone Body Colors

Gone are the days when a home had to be a uniform color to fit into the neighborhood. Homeowners are, more and more, opting to go with a “two-tone” approach to their exteriors. What does that mean exactly? Choosing two body colors gives you the ability to highlight certain aspects of your architecture and make pieces of your home pop when they might otherwise get lost in the background.

   

Suggested colors: Harbor Grey & Desert Sand, Lakeshore Fern & Silver Grey, Cornsilk & Almond

Dark & Navy Blue

Richly-colored homes will never go out of style. That's precisely why we suggest dark blues or even a deep navy blue for your home. This range of colors inspires tranquility and allows your home to take on a warm glow at night when the inside is lit up.

   

Suggested colors: Portsmouth Blue, English Wedgewood, Glacier Blue

Midtone & Pale Greens & Blues

Pale and mid-tone colors are universal, transcending both contemporary and traditional architecture to offer you peaceful colors for a peaceful space. Use them as a body-color or even as an accent.

   

Suggested colors: Sage, Pebblestone Clay, Natural Cedar

Warm Whites

What are warm whites? Think of a white color that almost glows in front of you. These colors can sit back against a natural landscape yet stand up against it at the same time. If your home has any wood or rock accents, then a warm white body color is perfect.

 

Suggested colors: Almond, Silver Grey

Mineral Grays

Mineral grays have seen a new resurgence in response to warm palettes becoming so popular. A mineral gray can be described as a pale gray with slight green undertones. This color pairs perfectly with metal, wood, or even rock accents, so it can be used with many types of architectural designs.

   

Suggested colors: Deep Granite, Quiet Willow, Sage

Tan & Beige

Warming colors are in abundance right now, and that means that tan and beige homes are also quite popular. Both colors are warm and inviting, blending well with their natural surroundings. Beige and tan palettes work with almost every color in the spectrum as well.

   

Suggested colors: Autumn Harvest, Montana Suede, Sandstone

Dark Gray & Black

While it might not be for everyone, dark grays and blacks are both austere and striking. They can fit well into our mountainous surroundings (hello, Western Massachusetts) and, at the end of the day, make a statement.

 

Suggested colors: Misty Shadow, Harbor Grey

Match, Complement, or Contrast Your Shutters & Entry Door

Once you've chosen a body-color, what do you do about things like shutters and doors? Truly, the sky's the limit when it comes to that aspect of home color theory. We'd suggest that, whatever you do, you do it consistently.

  • Match: match your shutters and entry door color to that of your siding

  • Complement: choose a shutter and door color that complement your siding color. Is your siding a light blue, like the sky? Then we’d suggest finding colors that can also be found in the skylight or dark greys (clouds), other shades of blue, or even a sunny yellow.

  • Contrast: if you love to make a statement, then tastefully contrasting your shutters and entry door with your siding can work as well. Think of something like brick and taupe, blue with black, or green and tan.
