Pavers form a gateway to your home and the first taste of what to expect once you're inside. Pavers can be used to set a mood and establish a design style and, whether you're building or renovating your home, you'll want to get it right.
You'll find pavers in a range of materials, from warm and natural terracotta to eminently stylish granite and slate and you'll have noticed them gracing many paths, patios and driveways. But with a complex field of colours and patterns from which to choose, how do you pick the perfect paving pattern for your home? Here are a few classic designs to get you started.
Mixing your patterns
Once you decide which of the basic patterns will suit your home and lifestyle, you can get truly creative and start combining patterns to form your design. Consider pairing herringbone and stack bond designs, combining a simple stretcher bond pattern with a radial border, and mixing colours and textures. Once you have the basics, the sky's the limit!
Paving is about so much more than creating a place to walk or park your car. With the right materials, the perfect pattern and professional paving assistance, your pavers will set the tone for what's in store inside your home. So choose well, and enjoy designing with pavers.
