Slate Color

#34454c

Slate Color is a dark blue-gray, close to roofing slate or a stormy sea, with a slight cool cast and low saturation. It is one of the most versatile colors in the book, appearing in 13 combinations. Raw Sienna gives it warm, ochre contrast, Turquoise Green brightens it with a pale aqua, and Cotinga Purple makes a deep, moody pairing. At around 10:1 on white it is an excellent text color and a softer alternative to black. Use it for front doors, tailored coats and dark interface backgrounds.
