Alternatively, you can look to your entry decor for inspiration in choosing your front door color. A door is a large vertical plane, so the color you choose is going to be fully in view and likely be a significant amount. So choose wisely. You might want to consider a lighter shade of a color found in your wallcovering, rug or artwork. Painting the trim and ceiling the same color can have a dramatic effect as well. In my experience, the most popular front door color is a shade of blue.
