Colors that photograph well
26 Team Brody homes, the paint on each, and the listing photos that show it: exteriors, front doors, kitchens, walls, fireplaces and built-ins. Every chip is drawn from the paint maker's published color value.
Many of these colors were picked on site with our stager, Jennifer Pezzolo, who chooses the paint and lighting for the homes we prepare for market.
Tap any color code to copy it. LRV is light reflectance value, from 0 (black) to 100 (white). Screens and printers shift color, so look at a painted sample on the house before you commit.
