The facade of your house can reveal a lot about your personality. Do you like to throw parties? Are you more traditional? Do you like to show off your interior design skills? Surprisingly, these questions can be answered by the color of your door. There are many fun colors you can paint your front door, but there are also a handful of colors you should avoid. Here are the 5 worst colors to paint your front door.
BROWN
A brown painted door can make your home look outdated . If your style is not traditional, it’s best to avoid a brown painted door. A brown door can also make your house look boring and unwelcoming.
BLACK
Although, a black painted door is currently in style, it also absorbs a lot of heat, which can eventually crack and warp the shape of your door. A black door is currently chic, but why not opt for a timeless color instead.
ORANGE
It’s hard to get an orange door to match the facade of your house. It’s also difficult to get the right shade of orange – if it’s too pale, it can look dirty and old, but if it’s too bright, it can be unsettling to the eyes.
PALE GREEN
Green is a welcoming color and would look wonderful on a door. In design, green represents nature, peace, and prosperity. But a pale green door can do opposite of that. Sage is currently a hot color in interior design, but if you don’t get the shade just right, you’ll get pale green color that will make your door look old and dirty.
YELLOW
Most think that a yellow door can signify happiness and creativity, but just like the orange door, if you don’t get the right shade it can look tired and muddy. Also depending on the neighborhood or HOA, a yellow door can stand out more than your neighbors would desire.
