Facade paint for house with RAL 7016 windows?

Referring to an anthracite #293133 (decimal: 41R,49G,51B) = 84C+81M+80Y+0K, this means after extraction 4C+1M+0K+80K that we are dealing with a 4% C and 1% M (thus slightly bluish-turquoise) cast of an 80% gray.

Now, of course, a film manufacturer does not mix 4 parts light blue, 1 part pink, and 80 parts black granulate together, because his basic ingredients are different than in printing - and voilà, his result would then only be "similar" if RAL 7016 were a printing color.

And it is always better to work tone-on-tone and to choose rather timeless colors. Which by the way also applies to everything else on the house. We gladly still remember green or orange or even pink bathrooms from the 80s. That was totally trendy back then and today nobody wants to have them anymore. Something similar will happen with the shades of gray.

In a few years no one will want to see this standard gray in RAL 7016 anymore.

To pick up this good contribution once again (even though the user otherwise writes a lot of nonsense): that was also our top priority: timelessness. For windows, floors, doors, kitchen, lamps, etc., we always looked at old houses and paid attention to what is still beautiful today. Parquet (natural) for example has (at least to my knowledge) never really been out of style. Likewise, for example, white mullioned windows or white stairs with oak steps. My favorite negative example was always the super trendy Ikea kitchen in red and high gloss, which today just looks old. That was not even 10-15 years ago or so? Or those round plastic door handles from the 90s… So I think: when in doubt, always classic. All these dark gray new housing estates look like Mordor.

These entire dark gray new housing developments look like Mordor.

Thanks for the laugh! I'll remember that! Especially fitting when the front yard has more gravel than the Munich-Hamburg railway line.

Thank you for the laugh!

Absolutely, I agree with you, but differently…

All these dark gray new housing estates look like Mordor.

… the houses aren’t gray but mostly white. In my municipality, we live in the white village, not to be confused with Andalusia’s white villages, but just as bright, light-reflecting, and much brighter than the brick-villaged center.

Parquet (natural) for example was (at least to my knowledge) never really out of style.

Yes, it was. There were times when people laid carpet and PVC over it. My then-modern parents absolutely and completely did not want the old wooden flooring like my grandparents.

Ditto for example white casement windows

Phew, to me they always looked quite cancer-promoting

white stairs with oak steps.

The same applies to oak as to parquet: oak existed mostly only in dark as “Gelsenkirchen Baroque,” and wood was not a sign of wealth that many aspired to.

Or these round plastic door handles from the 90s…

… yes, ugly. We had those, but they were many times better than the ornate brass handles. Etc.

When in doubt, always classic.

What exactly is classic? Maybe you mean Classicism, but I can’t imagine you take antiquity as a model. ? Or do you? For many, turrets and columns are the epitome of aesthetics, but that then has very little to do with RAL 7016 ;)
