Although frigid winter conditions make it difficult or impossible to complete exterior home improvements, the season is the perfect time to make a checklist of renovations to complete once spring arrives. If the siding is peeling or pulling away from your house, there are several benefits of installing new materials. Doing so will restore the curb appeal of your home and prevent heat transfer and air loss, keeping energy costs low. When deciding how to revamp the facade, below are a few trends in 2019 to keep on your radar.

Siding Trends to Consider for Your Home

1. Cool Neutrals

Choosing neutral colors for home siding can serve as the perfect backdrop to showcase the beauty of the landscape or the subtle details on the house. Although beige and tan have been popular options in the past, many homeowners are turning to cool neutral shades to boost the appeal of their properties. Gray, for example, can make trim stand out and pairs nicely with other colors. Blue tones will help connect the house facade to nature, evoking a tranquil feeling. 

2. Mix & Match Sizes & Materials

To make the facade truly unique and eye-catching, go the less traditional route with your siding choices. Instead of using planks in the same size, vary the width of boards for a country farmhouse-inspired look. Playing with different materials will also add texture to the facade. For example, you could outfit the top of the house with steel or vinyl siding while the lower floors are clad in brick.  

3. Contrasting Color Scheme

Although you could choose one cool neutral shade for the entire house, a mix of light and dark tones is also worth considering. Choosing a dark color for the siding, such as navy or red, will make a lighter trim in a contrasting color—such as white, gray, or beige—stand out. You could also use one or two lighter shades as the dominant colors and use a dark hue to pull focus to the trim, doors, and other accents.
