10+ builders were selected at the time King Farm was developed. Each builder designed their own individual color scheme for the exterior elements of each home (i.e., brick, shingle, trim, front door, and shutter color).

Therefore, if you need to replace, repair, or repaint one of these elements, you may refer to the pre-approved material lists and Architectural Design Guide on the website and within the internal documents in the FrontSteps resident portal. Additionally, you may email Management or contact the Community Architect if you are unsure of what color you can use.

PLEASE NOTE:

* Exterior color changes to shutters, doors, trim, and all other exterior elements, requires submission of a Design Review Application (DRA) and approval from the ADT/Community Architect.

• DRAs and more information can be found here: https://kingfarm.org/design-review-applications/.

• If the same color is used, an DRA is not needed.

FAQ – Determining what color scheme was used for your home:

There are several ways you can determine what exterior colors were used for your home.

1. Refer to your settlement documents. Your settlement documents may have information about the original materials and colors used.
2. Take a paint sample from your front door or shutters and bring this to a paint retailer and request that they color match (or have them find the closest color to the original).
   • Some of the original paint colors are no longer produced, but you can find a similar color to use.
3. Refer to the Original Color Scheme by Builder document; identify the color scheme used for your home and locate the exterior color you are looking for.
   • The color scheme document can be found within the FrontSteps Resident Portal under “Architectural Design Guidelines” / “Original Color Palettes“.
   • To identify your color scheme, first look at the community map or your settlement documents and determine which builder constructed your home.
   • Once you have identified the builder, find their color scheme within the guide and locate the elements that match your home.
