Craftsman paint colors with a metal roof

Compare the metal roof as one continuous dark surface above the painted body. Try a blue-gray, a muted green and a cream direction while keeping roof seams and natural timber unchanged. Review trim at the gables and eaves before adding extra accents.

Craftsman inspired mountain workshop; horizontal lap siding; charcoal gray large side gable with shed dormer and small entry cross-gable roof; gray-tan stone foundation band; stone garage pier bases; landscape boulders.

Color guide

Compare Grays Harbor siding with Alabaster trim while preserving metal roof, wood garage doors, timber entry. This provides blue-gray with light trim for the shortlist.

Screen colors are a guide. Always test real paint.

Working with what stays

Use the roofline as a strong outline

Standing seams and broad roof planes already draw the eye. Compare a quieter trim treatment with a lighter one to decide how much additional outline the facade needs.

Keep the timber garage in the comparison

A large wood-finished garage supplies its own color and texture. Compare the siding beside both roof and garage instead of choosing it against the roof alone.
