Going to be building a new house and I’m a disaster when it comes to picking colors, stonework, and whatnot. Has anyone worked with an exterior designer they can recommend? Thank you!

Where in Southern NH and are you looking someone to build it too or just design it?

Exactly. There is a big difference between an architect and a designer.

Around the manch area. The architect has designed the house already, now need to pick things like siding and roof colors, and exterior stone work.

U can also get consults if you don’t want to higher a designer you can get consults based off of a style you choose (modern, contemporary, etc)

You can also "save post" in the upper right hand corner.

I can also count on people to make weird comments back to me and remind me to look at the thread I was interested in yesterday!

Why not have the architect select them? Its shocking to me if he cant do it, might mean an additional service, but he should know. Additionally, design should never be simply "Make a design, then pick finishes". The finishes go hand in hand with the design, as the material selection is critical to understanding the performance of the house.
Im an architect that specializes in exterior work, i recommend you reach out to your architect and have him help you with that.

Upwork could save you a lot of time and money. So look into that as well. I am likely hiring an architect off this site soon. Much cheaper than anyone I know in the area and can see all their work.
