[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really like navy blue, but am having a hard time picturing it on your house as you describe.  It seems very dark.  But the white option sounds unobjectionable/classic, but also boring.

What about flipping your colors for option B and painting the house yellow with navy accents?  A light yellow might "go" more with the other homes on the block?[/quote]
