Colour contrasts, intricate mosaics or networks of paths – there are countless architectural solutions that enrich the space around the home. The brand Polbruk advises on how to bring out the very best in it by choosing the right pavers.
Seamless naturalness
Whilst the choice of façade design may be restricted by local planning regulations, there is complete freedom when it comes to pavers and garden styling. So how do you choose pavers to maintain the coherence of the design? – When looking for the colour, shape and type of pavers, the owner’s preferences and the style of the house are the main guiding factors. The building’s structure, decorative elements, roof tiles, shutters – when designing the space around the house, these elements deserve particular attention – explains Wojciech Średniawa, designer for the Polbruk brand. Pavers are a very versatile material for arranging the space around the home. By combining products of different sizes, shapes and colours, we can create an atmosphere in front of the house that evokes both a bustling city and a peaceful town straight out of sunny Italy – it all depends on the designer and… the colour of the roof.
Classic combinations
The most common argument for choosing red, brown or yellow pavers is the red roof tile, so popular in Poland. – It’s only natural. This combination creates a very cohesive composition that you can play around with, for example by adding graphite-coloured low walls or edging – elements that are simple to install yet can significantly liven up the garden space – adds Wojciech Średniawa. Among the Mediterranean-style pavers, Polbruk Nostalite Prima really stands out, combining a whole spectrum of warm colours – from brown, through red, to orange – in a single stone. On the other hand, all kinds of pavers in grey or graphite shades, such as Polbruk Ideo bianka – a new product on the market – will serve as an elegant addition that emphasises the metropolitan character of the home. A system of varied rectangles will skilfully emphasise the classic style of a detached house with a white façade, black roof tiles and shutters, whilst the rough texture of these pavers will introduce a touch of sophistication to the immediate surroundings. To add variety to the design, the palette of white, grey and black can be enhanced by incorporating light yellow or sand-coloured elements of street furniture: lawn edging, palisades and planters.
