Bad Color Scheme?

Okay so I'm often accused of being aestheticly challened. That being said I somehow feel this color scheme is just wrong for a Mobile Home. (This is the back of the trailer and no I'm not going to show the front of the trailer. Let me just say the front of the trailer is the same color scheme along with a large Mexican Flag hanging inside the Patio.)

So what do you think?

The shutters stand out because the green isn't present anywhere else. They should be the same as the trim colour, or a lighter shade of it. Remember, this comes from an inferior desicrator.

This is the problem. Green upper and lower trim would help, but in the long run, nothing much looks right on a mobile home. Too many ignorances; not enough paint.

I'm driven to ask the kinds of ignorances even though I know the stereotypes surrounding Mobile Home Dwellers and from where they come.

If you know the stereotypes.... then you know the ignorances. Unless they're provincial, in which case, I can't answer anyway.

It's an attempt to go southwestern colors--the ones popular during the 80's (see here :p).

The colors in and of themselves aren't bad, but the mint-green is too bright and the pink/tan too pale to go together well, and as said, there's not enough green trim to mitigate this.

Which is to say, you're right that this combo, as it, doesn't work, but I think it could be made to work with an adjustment of hue and/or more trim. It may not be the best combo, but it doesn't have to be that bad.
 
I think it looks gay - not that there's anything wrong with that.

Oh I know the stereotypes as well as the ignorances. I have dealt with both of them. Then again I have found that at least in the areas I have lived they are just as bad in the higher end places as well.

One of the worst places for ignorance was a place I lived in up in Mass. This was a very high end neighborhood, Millionare Row was the local nickname. Talking with these people was a chore. Not because of the lack of education but because of the ignorance. Unless you were one of them, one of their socio economic class, one of their race or even one of their gender then you were trash.

I have dealt with the rich and the poor and found them to be about even in their ignorance. It's not just in the Trailer Parks, it's all over. The ignorance in trailer parks is spoken of because it was pointed out in too many comedies and stories.

The shutters are OK, but the wall colour is fugly.

It looks like someone just nailed plaster sheets together, and let the paper surface turn yellow with age.
