Slate Mist N13

Slate Mist N13 sits in our Microcement range with true-neutral undertones that don't fight other materials, undertones of blue-grey, and a character that's cool, slate-edged mid-tone. Properly mid-tone, so it reads consistently from morning to evening. We see Slate Mist N13 specified most often for open-plan wet zones and stairwells and double-height risers. The lineage is industrial loft, but the way it sits on a wall is unmistakably current. It pairs cleanly with stainless steel, chrome, glass and cool-toned timbers like ash or maple.
