On a Colonial-style facade, compare a single principal siding color with a clear trim and shutter relationship. The repeated windows and central entrance make color repetition easy to see, so test a restrained scheme before adding separate accents to each feature.

Compare White Dove siding with Hale Navy trim while preserving roof, brick or stone, wood door. This provides soft white with a deep blue trim comparison for the shortlist.
Screen colors are a guide. Always test real paint.

A simple side-gable Colonial and a gambrel Dutch Colonial do not show the same amount of roof. Choose the closer roof form before judging how light the siding should be.
