Most colours have a particular significance or traits attached to them. Think about what colour says about you and your home. Below we’ve listed a few of our favourite bold front door colours and the characteristics that come with them.

Yellow

Let’s start with yellow. This bright and cheery shade is bound to add instant kerb appeal. A primary colour, it’s a shade that radiates warmth, happiness and is welcoming, perfect for the entrance of your home.

The colour symbolises knowledge, happiness, peace and meditation all positive connotations that you’d like to associate your home with. Pair yellow doors with bright white frames and features for a fresh look.

If you have a modern home yellow front doors look fantastic with graphic palms and grasses. For a period home, dark green ivy or soft shrubs appear inviting.

Pink

Pink in all of its forms signifies romance, passion and creativity. Calmer shades suggest tenderness and care. A colour like this certainly creates a talking point for passers-by.
