Modern Paving Patterns

When it comes to choosing the right pavers for your home, whether it be for a walkway, outdoor patio or driveway, the challenge is selecting a paving pattern that will enhance the look of your home without overshadowing it. The design of this particular ultra-modern home is visually striking, with a bold red brick pattern to the left of the entrance, and a spectacular wood toned pattern to the right. The solution came in the form of a three-color mix of Unilock Mattoni pavers. The end result is a quiet, contemporary combination that echoes the tones of the wood façade with a cozy modern color palette that lends to the home’s overall curb appeal.

Unilock Mattoni is described as a contemporary take on the classic Roman street paver, with a unique finish achieved with a proprietary technology to Unilock here in North America. The paver pattern is laid all around the front entrance of the home, including the driveway, walkway, and around to the backyard pool. Brick pavers laid out in the ever-popular running bond pattern coupled with the pattern of brickwork presented on the home’s exterior walls achieve a level of consistency and tone throughout the modern living space.

Subtle borders were created using Unilock Mattoni in Dark Charcoal to encompass the multi-toned paver pattern throughout the front walkway to the back of the home. The simple color blend elevates the surrounding landscape design, with planters, patio furniture and the backyard’s stunning water feature put on display. Outdoor lighting techniques were added, with subtle front step lighting and walkway lighting to guide homeowners and guests to the backyard to avert trip hazards at night. The finished paver pattern perfectly blends the home’s ultra-modern design with a unique old-world charm that can compete with commercial streetscape design trends. There are many options when it comes to paver patterns that should be considered when undertaking a hardscape project.
