House entry - How to color the garage door?
This home, perched on a river in Nevada City CA, has a steep drive way and once you have arrived the first thing that greets you is the garage door. Not the most inviting. To make it a bit more challenging for a color design and placement - it is unclear to guests where the front entry is or even which side to approach the home. To mitigate these issues we painted the garage door so it feels almost like an indoor space in a "craftsman" style. the mass of the garage door is broken up. Next, we painted the two posts on the left in an accent color to delineate and invite the guests into the front entry of the home which is completely hidden around the corner.
