Hi Shiri,

When building a structure made of "stone", I like to frame window- and
door-frames in a highlight color.  Something similar to this:

I'll get pictures of my castle this weekend, so you can see how I did it.
For your Inn, Black would probably look best. :)

Hmm... I'm not sure if I have 1x4 arches in the right colors.
If I highlight, and add a color-line, I'd love to make a green one... but I
don't have any green plates OR arches, and doubt I can get any. I'll prolly
go with red, but that sorta defeats the purpose of the inn in my storyline
(neutral, unaffiliated). Making it blue would be even worse, tho' - so I'd go
with red if nothing else is available.

What about black?  That generally looks best with gray (IMO).  It would serve
to define the windows, and make them more obvious.

You can see what I am talking about here:

This adds a lot of character to buildings, IMO.  :)
