Rule #1- Using Color expresses your personality...starting right at the front door















As a designer, one of the first things I'll direct my attention to is the front door. Is it a standard issue model or does it pop? Does it connect the exterior to the interior and tell something about your personality in the process? For little investment, swapping out the front door can make a big impact in overall curb appeal. For next to nothing,you can change the color for one that reflects YOU and YOUR style. What if you don't know your style? Start by finding one thing that appeals to you- it might be the  on a party invitation- is it the color combo? The font? You may find it on a book cover,a magazine ad, a roll of wrapping paper...I once designed an entire home's color scheme around a multicolor fringe around a pillow. So, start looking...when you find it- pull out the color that most reflects you, and try it out.
