color has alot of meaning
so you should paint whatever colors you feel relate to you or ur personality ..color gives feeling like blue could be sad or deep emotion...formal and yellow is happy and joy and pink preppy and cheery and so on so color says alot about the person you so you should paint the colors u r or feel ....if ur painting the outside of the house i'd go for a maroon or bashe or well like i said what u most perfer hope this helped good luck n hope u have a wonderful day!

This may be the most bizarre question I've read yet. Anyhoo, paint it pale yellow, like the color of butter. I have my whole interior painted this color and I love it, its perfect. It is an excellent color both psychologically and spiritually. It makes you feel good. Your question was written in quite an entertaining way.

You want the colours of desert and death, to remind you of your wonderful homeland, the Sudan.
See your council and tell them that you are forbidden to use gas and electric stoves and need a clay oven to be built, I'm sure they will oblige

This may sound stupid, but if you stand so you can see the other houses next to yours (or have a picture), try matching a color between them. Get something that you think works.

You know, that is your choice. YOU pay the rent right? So who cares about your neighbors or what anyone thinks... Paint it to your preference, and what you can stand.
