Pattern-Play Patio

Graphic flooring patterns are transforming outdoor living spaces in a big way. Contrasting paver patterns turns hardscapes into functional artwork while guiding traffic flow through outdoor spaces. Interesting paver patterns can turn a basic patio into a stunning artscape that rivals any indoor flooring design.

Urban Modular Lounge

Small outdoor spaces must multitask. Using modular materials like the Artforms Modular Panel System to create built-in benches and planters can create defined multi-functional spaces. Using large format pavers like Dimensions Slab can create a “bigger-than-it-is” feel.

Elevated Simplicity: Monochromatic Paver Design

Clean lines, oversized slabs, and a deliberately restricted color palette create a gallery-calm backdrop that lets outdoor furniture and plant silhouettes shine for a simple, yet elegant patio design.

Material Mixing

Limited square footage breeds creativity in outdoor design. Add even more appeal to a small outdoor space by mixing materials. Integrate decking for wall cladding or stone wall veneers to create visual interest and texture variation in compact areas.

Mountain-Modern Warmth

Despite 7 out of 10 homeowners still choosing gray pavers for their outdoor spaces, warm tones are making a comeback. The mountain-modern warmth trend particularly appeals to homeowners who want their outdoor living areas to feel connected to the natural landscape while providing year-round visual interest through varied textures and earth-tone color palettes.
