How to Style: Slate

February 28, 2023

Slate is the cool kid around here.

It's the perfect neutral that goes with anything and adds a relaxed, industrial vibe to your space. It's stylish, confident and sophisticated.

"Our Slate is a dark, smoky matte grey with a subtle blue undertone. It's a muted and versatile shade that can stand proudly on its own or let the other colours within your space really shine." — Becca

Here are some of our favourite ways to style a Slate locker in a space.

monochrome

Pair Slate and White together to create a crisp and classic combination. Having a monochromatic space doesn't mean it has to be boring! Add textures and patterns into the mix to keep things interesting, try a patterned rug or framed artwork. There's something so satisfying about a really reduced palette.

think pink

We love seeing Slate and Blush next to each other. It's one of our favourite colour combos! The pastel Blush really pops next to the dark Slate, adding softness to a space. You don't have to paint your walls Blush for this to look good (although we highly recommend it!) Adding small bursts of pink and metallic materials like gold, copper, or brass will create a sophisticated yet pretty look.

going green

Slate is the perfect neutral, and when paired with earthy green colours like our pastel Sage or deep Olive, it creates a super relaxing atmosphere. Bring the outside in with loads of indoor plants to really make the space feel cosy and calm.
