Soft Peach and Orange

• A house painted soft peach or orange works especially well with a light gray roof. These colors complement homes and townhouses in funky, youthful and modern neighborhoods and also on homes of all styles in warmer climates. Traditional homes seeking modern flair also work with these color choices.
  
  

Brick Red

• An elegant, matte brick red is another suitable color for a light gray roof. A matte brick and gray color scheme is cool-toned and works well on bungalows, townhouses or executive homes. Installing thick black molding and trim, as well as a black door, gives sophisticated polish to this color pairing.
  
  

Black

• Black and gray are a timeless pairing, and this is especially true for traditional, older heritage homes craving a clean, cool-toned update. This style choice is also a successful option for townhouses and newer developments. Opt for a brightly colored front door, in eggplant purple or yellow, for a funky bit of final polish.
  
  

Darker Shades of Gray

• A deep charcoal or silvery, darker shade of gray pairs well with a light gray roof. Select gray paint that is a minimum of two shades darker than your light gray roof; this isn't a drab pairing of colors if you have a home that has plenty of windows and works well if the trim and front door of the home are in a fresh white or soft shade of cream.
