Core Colors can be used on their own, or they can be combined in varying amounts with other Core Colors. They can also be combined with TruSlate™ Accent Colors, which are shown below.
Four Accent Colors:
Color Variation And Natural Weathering.
Please remember that slate is a completely natural material. As a result, there can be a fairly significant color variation in individual slates or from one lot of slates to another. So the slate you receive will vary from the pictures shown on this websites.
In addition to natural variation, exposure to weather causes all slate to change slightly in color and in composition over time. The degree of color change varies with different slates.
It is this variation in color, combined with natural weathering, that adds to slate’s beauty, character, and charm.
So which route do you choose: pure color or mixed colors?
The choice is largely based on personal taste. Start by looking through the photographs on this website. They include houses with pure colors only as well as some of the most popular blends. Your TruSlate™ SlateCrafter™ Specialist can also provide you with miniature slate samples to experiment with—so you can try your own color combinations in the comfort of your home.
