Paletas de colores frescos para un techo gris o negro

Los techos grises o negros presentan muchas ideas interesantes de diseño exterior que pueden darle a su casa un exterior atractivo, limpio y renovado. We’ve covered how to match some of the most popular siding colors with a brown roof in a few modern design examples. Ahora, veamos algunos conjuntos de colores diseñados específicamente para combinar con techos grises o negros.

If you have chosen-or inherited-a black or gray roof for your home, the gray may be dark, medium or light gray. Gray can have undertones of blue, green, or violet. You'll also find that some gray roofs are slightly browned, like weathered wood.

Which colors, beyond gray, can you determine in the roof samples above? The black and dark gray roof samples in the top row are the most neutral, and therefore will work with the widest array of color palettes.

The other samples have one or more of the following colors: blue, green, and purple. The color you see emerging will play into the overall color palette of the house exterior, so don't ignore it. Repeat that undertone color elsewhere on the house for a cohesive look. For example, if your gray roof has green undertones, you could do a shutter color in a similar or darker version of that green.

What Colors Go With a Gray or Black Roof?

There are many colors gray/black roofs work well with:

• Cool stone colors – varieties of off-white, gray, blue, gray-green, purple

• Most brick colors – including red, orange and yellow.

• Off-white, dark gray or black trim (NOT beige), such as LP
