Give the outside of your home as much love and attention as you do the inside!

Here are four on-trend ways to show off your home's exterior style:

Scandinavian Minimalism

Scandi design’s clean lines and subtle palette of white, grey and beige make it a timeless style. These exteriors feature sleek, minimalist facades. Large windows are key, allowing abundant natural light inside.

Colours palette:

• Whistler Snow 6205-11 by Sico
• Indian River 985 by Benjamin Moore
• Boreal Forest 6167-83 by Sico

Modern Rustic

This style mixes modern elements with warm natural touches, such as pairing a clapboard exterior with a wooden door and brick accents. Earthy tones create a harmonious blend of contemporary and rustic design.

Colour palette:

• Brown Tobacco 6189-532 by Sico
• Smoky Blue SW 7604 by Sherwin Williams
• Ancestral PPU24-05 by Behr

Industrial

Inspired by old factories, industrial style uses materials like steel, brick and wood. The colour palette is dark (think: black, grey, khaki, rust and brown), but it’s balanced by touches of white.

Colour palette:

• Cement Gray 2112-60 by Benjamin Moore
• Rouille 3084-52 by Sico
• Portico 263 by Peinture MF

Coastal

The star of 2025, coastal style is moving from seaside homes to urban spaces. Soft hues like pale blue, sand and slate grey evoke beaches, while a gabled roof and exposed beams bring a relaxed charm.

Colour palette:

• Wevet 273 by Farrow & Ball
• Bitter Sage N390-4 by Behr
• Charcoal SW 3063 by Sherwin Williams
