a hint of color

We started out with a 40ft vertical stripe of hot pink on the building, that then morphed into beige cement panels for all sorts of typical construction decisions like budget and time. Disappointment ensued, but the hot pink has persisted and will finally make a showing in the details of our house numbers.  Finally going up on the facade.  Here is Elliott mocking it up.

Instead of large canvases of color we decided to go with small high-lighted details - pink house numbers, red mailboxes, green stair railing, colored kitchen cabinets....perhaps the duct garden will get a high-light as well.
