A stucco-clad house is an ideal blank canvas for any designer or homeowner who is interested in creating a unique look.

Stucco is not only a durable and low-maintenance material but it can also be used with many architectural styles. Because of its simplicity, it draws attention to other interesting details such as windows, front doors, railings, and shutters.

Shutters are a great way to increase curb appeal for stucco homes. However, there are so many design options that it is difficult to know which shutter style would work best in your home. These ideas will help you spark your imagination.



Panel Shutters

It's easy to keep it simple with panel shutters. But, just because your home has a traditional shutter style does not mean it lacks flair. These are just a few examples.

1. Arch Top Panel Shutters to Maximize the "Wow" factor

The stunning shutters and windows of this type of contemporary home are breathtaking. We love the grand arched windows and arch top shutters. The shutters' beauty shines through the home's muted colors and soft lighting.

There are many shutter options on this house if you pay attention. The two lower windows will have panel shutters in a 50-50 format. The second-floor window features louvered shutters that can be operated with arch tops. Small inset windows can be paired perfectly with one-panel shutters. Multi-paned arched windows have custom flat panel shutters with radius tops. They really catch the eye.

It's difficult to imagine this kind of home without shutters!

2. For authentic charm, choose premium wood panels

If you love farmhouse charm and classic design, there are many things to love about this home. Premium wood shutters give the home a historic feel. The shutters are paired with trim for the doors and windows, adding a cohesive look to the home. A dinner bell and wind chimes add a finishing touch!

3. Panel shutters with cutouts to add a personal touch

It's amazing how little touches of color and creativity can make a home's exterior come alive! A homeowner may chose a white stucco exterior and made blue shutters. They have adorable custom cutouts, functional shutter hardware and a classic look. This gives the home a little flair. The perfect finishing touch was choosing a cherry red porch furniture color and planting colorful flowers along its front.

Although the overall layout of this home is simple and perfectly symmetrical, it's fun to add accents.

Louvered Shutters

Stucco is loved by some for its durability. Some people love stucco for its durability. Others like it because of its versatility. Optible louver shutters are a great option for those who fall in the latter category. Louver shutters are a great way to help filter light and improve airflow through windows. But even if you're not using them for decoration, they look great with many home styles.
