yellow definately xWhat color to paint outside foundation on house?
I would either leave it natural or paint it grey. If you paint it with one of your colors it will look mismatched because of the texture of the concrete. It will appear that you were trying to match your color and it was a shade off. If you do want one of the colors go with the hunter. The yellow will show dirt splatters from when it rains.
You'd be much better off with a concrete stain. Concrete ';breathes,'; so paint would peel rather quickly.


I think you'll be happier with the result if the foundation is stained the color of your siding (yellow). Green would stand out too much.
Whatever color you choose just be sure to use a paint that is designed to be used on concrete.
Either will be fine depending on the shade of yellow.. I ve seen a lot of a neutral gray that look good.A grey that won t distract from your other 2 colors GL
