The outdoor space on your property matters. It affects the value of your real estate, the activities pursued in your outdoor space, and the connection that you have with your yard. To create a place that you love to use as a central location for your family life, entertaining of guests, and connecting with nature, engage an expert in landscape design to assist you in making a grand plan for your yard. An outdoor kitchen is a great addition, and the tone of the construction can be in keeping with your tastes and the existing architecture of your property. Should you choose to include a rustic outdoor kitchen in your Cleveland, OH property, be sure to choose complementary paver and wall combinations to create the desired effect.
Rough and Weathered
To achieve a rustic aesthetic for your outdoor kitchen space, pavers and wall units with a weathered and aged appearance are ideal. Smooth surfaces and clean lines are nice for a modern look and feel, but if you want your space to reflect a rugged outdoors aesthetic, something with a little more character is in order. One option to achieve an aged aesthetic is to choose a combination of Brussels Block pavers and Brussels Dimensional System vertical units for your outdoor kitchen space. Brussels Block offers a quarried, weathered appearance in a variety of colors including Coffee Creek, Limestone, Sandstone, and Sierra, and when paired with Brussels Dimensional System in a complementary tone, your outdoor kitchen will capture the essence of quality outdoor living.
