Choosing paint colors in Los Angeles for an exterior painting project can be stressful. With countless options, how do you pick the right one? One way is sampling and there are many ways to sample colors.
Renderings are easy to make and provide a realistic depiction of what your house will look like with varying paint colors and combinations. By seeing the possibilities beforehand, you’ll confidently select hues that best suit your style and preferences.
Not only do well chosen colors enhance your home’s visual appeal, they increase its value. Whether you’re considering selling your property or just want to impress family, friends, and neighbors, renderings allow you to maximize the impact of your home improvement dollars.
Additionally, they let you explore options for coordinating colors with architectural features and landscaping. This approach ensures a cohesive and harmonious design that enhances your home’s curb appeal and leaves a lasting impression. Previewing color options is an important decision-making process that helps consumers transform their vision into reality while saving time, money, and hassle.

Understanding Color Basics
Understanding house painting color basics and the color wheel makes picking the right hues easier. The color wheel pictured here is based on three primary colors, three secondary colors and six intermediates. Intermediates are formed by mixing a primary with a secondary color, they are called tertiary colors.
Primary colors are red, blue and yellow. Primary colors are the three colors that can’t be made by mixing with other colors. These three colors can be mixed to create all the other colors and be combined with white or black to create tints (lighter tones) and shades (darker tones) of these colors.
Secondary colors are created by mixing two primary colors for example, mixing blue and red make purple. Red and yellow make orange, yellow and blue make green.
Tertiary colors are made by mixing primary with secondary colors. Varying the proportions of these colors creates different tertiary colors.
Exploring Color Options Before You Paint
Painting the outside of your house is a major home improvement project. It’s about restyling your home, showing off your unique personality, and capturing the attention of passersby. There are so many colors and color combinations; it’s difficult to pick the right one. How do you know which tone or shade is best? Exploring color options before you paint is an easy way to do it.
One way to view your upcoming color refresh before you paint is to produce color renderings, like the one here. Here’s how it’s done, take a before picture of the house, space or surface. Next, experiment with various color schemes superimposed on the picture. This lets you see mock-ups of your house before paying for paint and painters. Good color choices enhance the value and visual appeal of a property, and helps you maximize home maintenance dollars. Whether you’re looking to sell or want an aesthetic to make family, friends and neighbors envious, before and after color renderings are the way to go.

Coloration: Bright Colors vs. Muted Hues
Pictured here are two purple color chip cards from Pittsburgh Paints. The terms “bright colors” and “muted colors” are ways to classify different shading within the same color group. The brighter tones tend to have very little white or black tints added. Brighter shades appear sharper and trendier and they often appeal to people who like to decorate more frequently. The shaded, muted colors have black and white pigments. They have a longer lasting, more classic appeal. Chip B36 has the muted colors, while Chip A35 has the brighter colors.
