When painting your house exterior in the Craftsman style, keep in mind that you will be dealing with three areas: walls, trim, and accents. Sometimes the Craftsman design will have more colors, but only rarely.
Walls are the biggest area that you will be painting. These are sometimes called the "body" of the house.
Trim consists of eaves, pillars, railing, and the like. Accents are wall sections that are smaller than the body area.
On the next page, we look at the Craftsman house color palette arranged by wall, trim, and accent areas.
