Gray, white, blue-gray, off-white, and even beige remain popular colors for home builders and remodelers everywhere because, while they may not excite anyone, they won’t turn anyone who looks at a potential home off either.
Which is why we at least stop and take notice when a more colorful home comes along. Such homes may prove harder to sell because of the color choices, but the colors are an expression of an owner’s personality — and possibly a buyer’s too.
The owner of this modest yet spacious row home in Passyunk Square clearly has a sunny disposition, given the bright and bold colors one finds throughout this home. Accent colors like the white on the brick chimney serve to accentuate the brightness.
