Ideas re fascia and window trim color for this US Southwest MCM house?

Fascia color: original is this medium blue as you see. New window frames are dark brown. Roof flashing is dark brown (roof itself is light brown). House is off-white stucco (needs repainting). Window trim is the same medium blue as fascia. The original window frames were steel and also that same blue.

I'm having the fascia repainted, and I'll repaint the window trim also. What color for the fascia, do you think? Dark brown feels like it makes a very thick dark line, too heavy. The blue feels dated (although I generally like pops of color) and maybe renders the whole facade too chaotic? Other possibilities are off-white and close to the house color, a pale taupe, a medium brown, a dark copper, idk what else. The brick around the center window has shades of taupe, rust, and terracotta.

I don't want to stick with blue around the center window. What color do you suggest?

I don't want to keep the blue for the fascia. What color/s do you suggest, and why?

I would kind of like to keep the pop of blue beneath the windows. Is that too renegade? Not aesthetically pleasing? What other colors would you suggest?

Thank you so much for any ideas, friends.

Casual venue recs for v small memorial service, not religious?

Hi—I need ideas for an indoor very casual place to have a very small memorial service. Any ideas? Not a place of worship. We don’t need catering or any services at all—just a chill place. Big bonus if it’s also pretty. Thanks very much in advance.

Fascia etc color pls advise!

Fascia color (and under windows) pls advise !

Hi, my fascia (and eaves, where they exist, e.g. over front and back porches) are being repaired, and some replaced, for my entire house. I’ll include photos, but the house is off-white stucco (needs to be cleaned and painted but that will come later), the roof (new) is a light brown.

The windows are new and they have dark brown trim. The previous windows were the originals and they were a medium blue, and the brick beneath windows and the fascia were all that same medium blue.

I would love people’s opinions on the following:

  1. Fascia, eaves, and brick under windows: all same color?
  2. Fascia and eaves dark brown like windows? Medium blue as originally? Completely different color? (Because the house is kind of dingy I think white would not look good.) If I do a color other than a neutral, I think it would probably need to be in the blue family? A medium color like this medium azure, or possibly aqua? (No, prob not aqua …)

It is very hard for me to make decisions like this. It took me weeks to decide just on the window frame color.

How weird would it be to have the fascia dark brown, the eaves white, and the line of bricks under the windows a different color, not neutral?

Ach!

P.s. just a complicate things further, painting the entire house a different color is not out of the question either

Thank you in advance

(Had to delete and then repost with the photos, sorry for people who saw this in the last few minutes but didn’t have photos :/ )
