A Spanish adjective copies the gender and number of its noun, and it normally goes AFTER it: un libro rojo, una casa roja, unos libros rojos, unas casas rojas. Adjectives that do not end in -o only change for number: un libro azul, unos libros azules.
The usual slip. Leaving the adjective as it came out of the dictionary and putting it in front, as English does: un rojo coche, unas casa blanco.
Why it catches you out. In English the adjective never moves and never changes, so both halves of this are new at the same time. Say the noun first and let the adjective copy its ending, out loud: “casa blanca”, “libro blanco”. The rhyme is the rule.
