Wow! That is an intense shade of orange! I don't necessarily dislike the colors themselves, but it is some really large expanses of that bright orange. I think if the color was broken up with some contrast I'd like it more. I love the Victorian painted ladies in San Francisco, where they often use several bright colors, but not a large expanse of any one of them. My suggestion to those homeowners would be to add yellow shudders and lighter orange window boxes, and then of course, lots of flowers.

Thanks for posting the pic Lynn!
