36 PARADE
of
HOMES FALL 2023
takes a lot of consider-
ation before those first
brush strokes are ap-
plied, for both outside
and inside of your abode.
Start with natural elements, advises
Sue Wadden, director of colour mar-
keting for Sherwin-Williams.
"It's really about incorporation of wood
and stone and things that are in the
environment — and extra architecture
adds this charm and character to exte-
riors," Wadden says.
"For sure, neutral colour palettes —
colours of the earth, colours of nature
— are so important to exteriors. They
are inspired by the landscape, which
is always very beautiful."
CHOOSING THE RIGHT COLOURS TO PAINT YOUR NEW HOME IS NO BLACK-OR-WHITE DECISION THESE DAYS.
