These black exteriors with white trim are the perfect mix of classic and modern.

Last week, I shared a post all about our new exterior paint job, including the bold colour choice we went with. And holy smokes, I was totally blown away by your responses to it! Turns out y’all love a classic black exterior just as much as we do! While it was a resounding vote of LOVE for our new black exterior, I also had more than a few comments suggesting that while you loved the black colour, you weren’t sure you’d be brave enough to try such a bold choice yourselves. Well my friends, I’m hoping that after looking through today’s post, you might just feel differently. Honestly, I’m not sure I would have found the confidence to take such a leap out of my comfort zone either if I hadn’t fallen in love with this same bold look over and over again, each time I came across a new photo sharing it. With every photo of a black exterior with white trim that I crossed paths with, I found myself growing more and more sure that our house was built to be black. A traditional and classic colour, yet unexpected and paired with our cedar siding, I just knew it would have the perfect mix of modern-cottage that I’d been looking for.
So today, with the hopes that you may feel inspired to take a risk in your own home, to perhaps step (or leap!) outside your comfort zone too, I’m sharing some of the black exteriors with white trim that inspired our own bold leap. Grab yourself a cup of coffee and enjoy my friends!
