Old houses were traditionally painted in muted, natural colors that reflected the materials available in their regions. Common shades included whites, creams, browns, and grays, which were often derived from natural pigments. In some areas, homes were also painted in darker colors like deep greens or blues, particularly in the 19th century. These colors not only suited the aesthetic of the time but also helped with maintenance, as they showed less dirt and wear.
