After the individual stones had been cut out, the guys then set out to stain them with a color palette that would complement and blend well with the rest of the home’s exterior while still keeping the second goal, getting the heat out, in mind.
Color, as we all know, makes a big difference in how hot an object will get, especially when exposed to the searing Texas sun. Lighter colors will be cooler while darker ones will heat up quickly. We selected a series of colors that were generally light, with a few dark colors randomly distributed throughout to give it some character.
