Green offers a wide palette of hues, ranging from the vibrant yellow-green of a spring leaf to subtle gray-green, olive, and moss colors. All around the world, the color green makes a statement about where people live.
Earthy greens blend well with natural woodsy settings and are often used on bungalows and rustic shingle-style houses. Dark forest or pine green is a traditional color for shutters and trim on many colonial and Victorian-era houses. For a modern or art deco house, bright lime green can add pizazz. Add a touch of blue, and the color will turn a vivid turquoise. Choosing exterior paint colors is difficult, but the process can be fun when considering the global choices of green.
