Colorful Exteriors

When we leave the country, one of the most striking differences is often the exterior colors used on commercial buildings and homes. With the Fall Colors Contest focusing on interior colors, we thought it would be fun to praise the bold (or subtle) use of color on the outside. Shown here, vibrant green shutters in Pisa, Italy.
