Brick by Brick: Elevating Exterior Spaces with Color Works' Expert Paint Palette Designs

Why We Love Working with Exterior Brick at Color Works

At Color Works, one of the materials we love working with when designing architectural color palettes is exterior brick. While we can absolutely paint brick for a complete transformation, it’s important to note that painting isn’t always necessary. Brick, with its natural undertones, offers a lot of versatility and can be the perfect foundation for a stunning palette without a drop of paint.

Working with Brick’s Natural Beauty

Brick has a character all its own, and when we assess the undertones, we can determine whether it leans warm or cool. Understanding these tones allows us to build a harmonious color palette that enhances the beauty of the brick. By pulling colors for fascia, doors, and other architectural features, we can highlight your asset’s unique charm, creating a design that looks not only intentional but absolutely fabulous.

Whether the brick speaks with warm earth tones or cool neutral shades, we take that natural foundation and design a color story that makes the entire building shine. The goal is to make everything feel cohesive, balanced, and inviting.

Painting Brick: When It’s the Right Move

Of course, sometimes a full transformation is in order, and painting brick can be a game-changer. It’s an option we love when the project calls for a more dramatic or modernized look. Whether it’s a chic white, a bold charcoal, or a soft neutral, painting can take a traditional brick exterior and turn it into something completely fresh and current. And don’t worry—our expert team at Color Works knows the ins and outs of brick painting to ensure durability and a flawless finish.
