The front of your home is the first thing someone sees driving by or walking up to your home. Your front door color makes a big statement about you, your personality, beauty and curb appeal of your home and the beginning glimpses of the interior design.
When considering the color for your front door, a professional designer uses the color wheel basics. Read more about a color wheel.
Color Wheel
Better Homes & Gardens explains that “a color wheel is a great way for you to easily mix various colors that happen to go together on their own. Genera lcolor schemes based on the color wheel include monochromatic (several shades of a single color); analogous (colors found side by side on the color wheel); contrast (three colors spaced evenly apart on the color wheel); and complementary (two hues opposite each other on the color wheel). While selecting the color of your front door, pay attention to your home’s style and personality and use your front door for impact”.
Pantone Matching System (PMS)
Pantone got its start in 1963. Founder Lawrence Herbert created a system for identifying, matching and communicating colors for consistency across the print and textile design industries. His initial work led to the Pantone Matching System, a book that standardized colors across these fields. There is also a Pantone Color Institute.
Front Door Color Meanings
According to House Beautiful, Pantone conducted researched on what your choice of front door color can suggest about the type of person you are. Laurie Pressman, Vice President of the Pantone Color Institute revealed that based on the study, here are what the following front door colors say about you:

Have fun showing your personality to the world. If you are living in your home for a while, it is important to display your color selection? If you are going to move, keep in mind that the color could affect a sale so a more neutral color would be appropriate?
