Tips For Selecting The Best Color
Color Harmony
Complement Your Home’s Color. Don’t Forget Contrast!
When selecting your deck’s color remember to refer to your color wheel background. Complementary colors are two colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel.
Monochromatic or Analagous Combination
Two other color combinations are the monochromatic or analagous.
With a monochromatic choice, you select a color or hue and then combine various shades of that color.
An analagous color combination is the selection of a color and then the two colors next to it on either side of the color wheel.
Warm v. Cool
Undertones ~ just like choosing the best colors to complement your skin, composite decking colors also have a warm or cool undertone that can enhance and work well with your home’s outdoor color combinations. Take into consideration the trim, color of stone or other wood accents, siding, and doors. You will want to select a color with a similar warm or cool undertone to present your new deck in the best light.
Flow From Inside to Outdoors
One other thing you may want to take into consideration is your internal flooring colors, especially when your deck connects to a doorway which when opened invites you or your guests to flow easily from indoors to outdoors. Again, watch for complementary, contrasting, and undertones and avoid a disconnect between colors and keep the feeling that everything in and outside of your home all feels as one unit.
Samples!!!
This is a key to success in any project – DIY or hired. Having a sample of the product is the best way to place it in the environment to ensure your choice is the best option. You’ll confirm the colors complement each other, there is enough contrast to please the eye, and as always avoid the too warm v. too cool color choice. Our samples are available in a size that will help you or your designer be assured of the correct choice.
