A
common, and forgivable, weakness is to accentuate the gates with an oil
stain. In this application, however, we might best consider our
gate assembly in a more modest role by giving it a color that is more
in keeping with the precedent of the house. We're after the overall
affect, where the sum of the various contributions preferably don't upstage
the balance of the whole. Perhaps the olive green we see within
the window sashes and bay roofline.
