where it isn't brick.

[Zuni]

3. my apartment building is off white

My apartment was a nice green, with a gold kitchen before the fire I had last year. the fire restorators painted my apartment an "eggshell" off white. I had to do my bedroom up though, so I painted my bedroom "Chinese Red" in honor of my undying love for the great leader, Chairman Mao.



My room is actually similar in color to the sun behind the exalted leader of the masses.

17. That is an awesome house!

Looks like Seattle. I am a big fan of craftsman style homes. Big props

[mondo joe]

18. Thanks! That's the AFTER. You should have see the BEFORE.

And yes indeed - lovely Seattle.

[MissB]

24. Which brand of paint?

It is really difficult to do green well -and yours is done very, very well. Great looking house! The front door reminds me of my new front door, except I have the typical craftsman shelf underneat the windows.

[mondo joe]

29. Sherwin Williams - they have (had?) palettes of historic period paints

so there was a Craftsman set, with a nicely limited palette.

After spending several hundred $ on sample paints and getting nowhere, the Sherwin Williams set was a godsend.

You can see some of it in a book called Bungalow Colors, and I've seen the palette on line before too.

[MissB]

37. Thank you!

I'll check it out.

[LizW]

33. Adorable house!

I love the craftsman houses in the Pacific Northwest.

Great boulders in the front, too.

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

19. My landlord's is flaky yellow with chipping white trim

[redqueen]

20. Same as yours.

Plus dark green trim, front door and also the posts under the overhang.

[Zuni]

21. you are so lying

I know you live in a shed in the ozarks with that militia 6 months out of the year with no electricity so they can't use the flouride in the water to track your thoughts.

Are you afraid to tell the rest of DU about your 'other life'?

:silly:

[scarlet_owl]

22. Clay color with wine shutters.

[Rowdyboy]

25. Sunny yellow two story with white molding and some intricate hunter-green

trim on the attic dormer. Porch and columns are white, and porch ceiling is sky-blue (old southern tradition to keep away wasps/evil spirits).

[5thGenDemocrat]

26. Kind of a Baby-Couldn't-Help-It Brown

But we just put a spiffy new old (1915) front door on it. Plus, we're redoing the kitchen (and we have a 8'x30' foot dumpster arriving in about an hour to clean 44 years of accumulated crap out of it before FUNDAY).

It is now 47 days exactly to FUNDAY.

"doeskin". Brown metal roof, Brown trim and deep purple accents (shutters, doors).

All the houses on my block look the same. Tract house city.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

40. The color is called milkweed, and it's a very pale shade of almost

vanilla-yellow. Tons of wood trim everywhere...

[mondo joe]

41. It's beauty-full!

As fond as I am of my craftsman and of gray Seattle, sometimes I long for sun and open floor plans...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

42. THANK YOU, mondo joe!

Your craftsman is also beautiful, btw, but I'm with you on this one: I love my home (designed by our architect and built by a wonderful local builder). This is a view of the back, needless to say. I don't have any digital pics of the front yet. The style is rather like Frank Lloyd Wright...prairie style, sort of...And the sun is wonderful, yes.

[Redstone]

43. It's this color since we had it painted last summer:

Before that it was beige. Boring, boring beige.

44. I only have a condo

but the front has a black door with light green shutters and beige colored brick front.

Inside, my living room is a very pale green with slightly darker wood work. My art work in the living room all have prominent black features and frames. The bedrooms are very pale silver colored paint the water color repropductions are done there in wood frames to match my early American furniture style, and the kitchen is a beige blah I need to get redone, as is the bathroom.

52. A pale dusty rose brick with burgandy shutters

It sounds gross, but it's actually quite pretty. The brick is actually white and burgandy mixed when you look upclose. It's kind of hard to describe.

[baldguy]

53. Brick red

Made out of red bricks.
