People shouldn’t be able to be told what color to paint their house. More people should experiment with wild colors inside and out.
Sounds like someone has butted heads with an HOA or enforcement of some other covenant on look and feel.
Some people apparently have unseemly feelings about everything fitting to a certain design plan.
At the other end of the scale, there's painting your house neon yellow. A house is not a tennis ball. It should not cause road accidents.
Thanks, here's the mock-up of my new place:
In a suburb about half an hours drive from me theres a pink house, like an almost barbie-pink. Its eye-catching, i love it for them. I bet theres a real character in that household!
Don't tell Santorini that.
Greece would look great with the Norwegian house colors imho.
Are people told what color to paint their house? By whom?
HOAs essentially have rules for everything and force you to have your house conform to whatever standards were established when your house was built.
In the US, many municipalities cannot “afford” to expand municipal services to new developments, so instead said developments will establish an HOA that handles basic municipal needs (ex: trash, water, electricity, paving) along with other niceties like landscaping. The idea is that you are paying as a group to fund things in the neighborhood (but you of course still pay property tax to the city/county/state).
Haha, America strikes again for basic failures
And usually with an HOA all you're funding is people who will fine you for letting your grass grow too tall.
