You’re about to build the backyard of your dreams. The research is done. You've scoured the Internet, pinned your faves and peeked over fences; you decided on your project’s parameters and style. It's time to choose the perfect paver color: The right color palette can have a dramatic effect on the look of your project.
PAVER COLOR IS KEY. CHOOSE WISELY
Selecting the right paver color is crucial for creating a cohesive outdoor landscape and boosting your home's curb appeal. When designing an outdoor living area, the color of your pavers should match the rest of your home's exterior as well as the surrounding landscape. Not sure where to start? Consider the architectural style of your home, any existing color schemes you may have going on and natural elements like plants, stone and mulched areas when making your choice on paver stone color.
WE LIKE YOUR STYLE – COMPLEMENTARY COLORS
To get started, Llook at your home and assess the existing color palette along with making note of any architectural features.. Your color palette should harmonize with your home by complementing its architectural style and exterior color. Landscaping also plays a significant role in color selection. Keep in mind the change of seasons and the way the colors of pavers around your home project will change. Different times of day may cast shadows in different areas of your pavers. It’s important to plan how the environment affects your aesthetic.
Understanding the psychological impact of colors can guide your selection and help create the right ambianc in a space. For a relaxing feel, natural grey tones are soothing and calming. How about something rustic? Reds, beiges or shades of brown may be your choice. Picking lighter colors will always make your space feel larger than it is and are a good choice to brighten up an area, while darker tones are great for full sun. Consider the mood you wish to set in your outdoor area when choosing your paver colors.

HOW WILL THE SPACE BE USED?
If your pavers are around a pool, consider lighter colors that reflect light and are cool on bare feet. For a patio with an outdoor kitchen, a darker palette is a great choice. Barbecues can be messy! Get some inspiration from the Outdoor living section of our website.
The function of your outdoor space should influence your color choice. For high-traffic areas or places prone to spills, such as outdoor kitchens or dining areas, darker concrete paver choices can help conceal stains and wear. In contrast, lighter landscape pavers are preferable for pool decks or areas exposed to the sun, as they remain cooler underfoot and can brighten the space. These are practical and stylish paver styles and colors for any outdoor project.
TO STAND OUT, CHOOSE A BRILLIANT BORDER COLOR
Now, take your project to a higher level by including an accent or border color to add elegance. You can choose two shades of the same color or for a bolder effect, explore contrasting paver color options that complement one another. Using accent pavement bricks can give your project definition and personality.
