For the best look, we recommend pairing navy blue with washed-out red brick with tan and brown undertones, as the contrast between the blue paint and red brick adds more depth and dimension to the room. Additionally, consider how dark your brick color is before purchasing any paint cans.

Revere Pewter, Iron Mountain, and Onyx are three neutrals that work well together. These paint colors help define a home’s architectural features without feeling too busy, even with a high-contrast red brick and light mortar base.

Sage green + taupe: Because red and green are complementary colors, this exterior brick and paint color combination works well with red brick homes. In a muted shade like sage, the green brings out the brick's color without overwhelming it. Plum + cream or taupe: Neutral brick houses benefit from a dose of rich color, such as plum.
