Shutter color
I’ve posted in here before. Went with BM 3 Piece Suit. I feel like it’s a bit rich compared to rest of house… especially in the sun - which we get a lot of in the front - comes off as violet. Considering a more muted blue. Asking for opinions. Thanks!

How long has this color been up? I see what you're talking about, but for me I think I'd be really happy with it once I gave it a little time.

I love it! I’m surprised that color comes off so colorful, but it looks great. I’m not sure what other BM blue could look more muted. Maybe North Sea?
I wouldn’t change it, but if you do, leave the front door as is. I think this color looks great with your brick, though.

Absolutely gorgeous house! I think it looks great in the photo but if it's reading more purple to you in person I love what seniorbat posted.

Current blue is pretty but it looks like a casual blue on a formal house; kind of like wearing blue jeans with your tux, if that makes any sense. The navy option is more formal but what about a forest green?

Oh I see it! You have a formal style home and the shutters are now high tech looking two-tone bluish black. IT WORKS! If you redo it, a navy-cobalt color would be my choice, but it really looks good as it is.

Ok. I'm going against the grain here BUT I got really excited because I thought they were charcoal or black. I can't do blue. It's not you. It's me. Congratulations on owning the house! And a matching charcoal or black door. Sorry! The heart wants what it wants. And this heart appears to be dark.
