My wife is looking over my shoulder and she suggests a medium beige, light tan or a pearl color. Any of the warm, neutral colors. Also to get some paint swatches in those color categories and hold them next to your brick. If you can one or two colors that you think would be good, then get the smallest amount of paint they'd mix for ya', and paint a scrap board. After it's dry, hold it (them) up against the brick for a few days and see how you feel about the color match. Another item to consider is to have the trim the same color as the siding, rather than a contrast. The contrast tends to 'smallen' the looks of the house. The warm neutral colors would also be in the same color family as the roof.
