Hi All,
We're adding a bedroom/bath onto our 1960's ranch style home. It was orginally a 2/1 but will now be a 3/2.
The original part of this block home was covered in thin red brick. I believe they call it veneer.
Knowing that we would not be able to match this, we decided to have the addition stucco'd since it was in the rear.
We also stucco'd another back wall that was a wood-frame patio enclosure from the previous owners. This way, the entire rear of the house looks uniform.
My question is regarding paint color? We have a light red brick on the original and I am trying to think of a good color for the stucco'd area. The stucco texture is an olive green color which looks a little nice but not sure if it goes with brick.
Your thoughts?
