# 1 Professional Interior Exterior house Painters Ridgefield CT

Try a splash of gorgeous color to boost curb appeal and make your front entry more welcoming. Get some ideas from these colorful front doors.

Green Light

According to Feng Shui principles, you can’t go wrong with green, the color of balance and renewal. Don’t worry that it will blend in with your landscaping—using green can actually draw out the different shades that are found naturally in your yard. The saturated hue shown is Behr’s Precious Emerald. www.manuelzpaintinghomeimprovementinc

Unique Coral

You might think coral pink would be a tough color to pull off, but it looks right at home paired with a pale cream brick. Photographer and licensed contractor Brittany Bailey  Pretty loves unique front door colors, which is why she photographed this pinkish-orange door, which is a good companion for any neutral siding color — witness the recent fall fashion trend of salmon paired with olive green. (If it looks good on you, chances are it’ll look good on your house!)

Rasin Purple

This earthy color palette is warm and inviting, but it’s the brownish-purple front door that really makes it happen. Use Sherwin Williams’ Raisin to pull off this look .ABOUT
