Slate vs quartz cladding
Slate tends to read darker with layered texture; quartzite often reads warmer and brighter with strong mineral character. Both can be specified for premium façades.
Key points
- Choose by architectural intent: contrast vs warmth, crisp lines vs riven texture.
- Match the environment: sun exposure, coastal air, and adjacent material palette.
- Confirm pack formats and face heights early to align with elevations and module planning.
