Top 5 Driveway Ideas
Your driveway deserves better than drab, gray concrete. While the traditional concrete slab may be practical for a driveway, it is uninspiring. You can have so much more, and the hardscaping experts at Triad Associates are ready to help you get it. Driveway pavers and other stones can transform the entryway to your home, giving your property an exciting, new look without sacrificing any of the functionality.
Here are five great ideas for transforming your driveway:
Unique Colors
If you’re going to use a new material for your driveway, why not use a whole new color? Forget about the gray! You can choose from a variety of paver colors, such as shades of brown, red, tan, and more. Our hardscape specialists can show you what these options would look like for your driveway with sketches, samples, and pictures of past work.
Different Designs
Your driveway doesn’t have to be a long, narrow grid of crisscrossing pavers. You can incorporate many different designs to get a unique look. A simple alternative is to run rows of pavers at an angle up your driveway. If you want to get more complicated, you can try a variety of different designs, such as circles, fans, curves, grids, and more. Our hardscape designers will help you find the perfect paver layout design to create a gorgeous driveway for your home.
Multi-Sized Pavers
You can create a different look for your driveway just by changing up the size of the pavers you use. You aren’t limited to a uniform design with the same size or type of pavers. You can experiment with combining different sizes to create different looks. Even if you use the same colored pavers, just using different sizes can put different lines and patterns into the driveway. We’ll help you explore different ideas to find an interesting and beautiful look for your driveway.
Decorative Curb
A curb can add a decorative edge, as well as a functional border, to your driveway. The curb can be made of pavers or other stones, or it can be poured concrete. It can be the same color as your driveway pavers or an accent color. It can be the same type of stone or the same style, or it can be a different stone or style. Again, experimentation is key. Trying out different combinations will help you find the right pairing to create a truly stunning design.
Accent Columns or Walls
Accent columns on either side of your driveway can create a truly stately entrance. Or you can add a small accent wall or even a combination of a wall with accent columns anchoring the ends. Adding these features will create a sophisticated and luxurious look for your driveway and your home. You can further elevate their profile by adding LED lighting or other accessories.
