Curb Appeal: Craftsman With Pink Front Door
Not even Seattle can dampen the mood of this cheerful Craftsman. A bright pink door and hanging planters perk up the navy blue exterior, while a porch swing, wicker chairs and a white coffee table create an adorable sitting area. The original brick wall is a nice touch, too, as it showcases some of the home's 1918 character.
Craftsman Front Porch and Pink Door
In rainy Seattle, a covered outdoor space is a must. The punchy pink front door was this porch's design jumping off point. Hanging planters pick up the bold color. Armchairs, a coffee table and a porch swing make a comfortable sitting area. Paint colors: Shake siding: Behr Poppy Seed; Front door: Sherwin Williams Amaryllis; Stairs and porch base: Sherwin Williams Tricorn Black
Craftsman Front Porch Before
This Craftsman home had plenty of charm, but its front porch delivered a dated first impression. It needed new, updated finishes (that protected the original brick) and accessories that would let it be a hangout spot.
Craftsman Front Porch and Yard
The owners of this 1918 Craftsman home wanted a front yard and porch that would be instantly welcoming. The original exterior's green stucco was switched out to navy blue siding that paired handsomely with the home's cream-colored trim. For a cohesive look from yard to porch, designers used planters painted the same pale gray as the chairs and porch floor. Chairs, faux tile floor and flower pot paint color: Sherwin Williams Silver Plate
