Colour families
We hold no photograph of this finish on one of our own projects, so this page does not show one. Everything above is a colour family, not a picture of a material.
Permeable & planted joints
Permeable paver
Units set with deliberately open joints over an open-graded stone reservoir, so rain goes down instead of across. Sometimes a design choice, sometimes what the plan check asks for.
Signature cost band
The middle band. Where most of our projects land once the yard is seen as a whole.
Colour families
- Grey
- Buff
- Charcoal
Families, not products. The exact colour gets chosen off a physical sample against your house.
What is true of this material
- Joints
- Open, filled with clean angular chip
- Base
- Open-graded stone reservoir, deeper than a standard base
- Upkeep
- Joints need vacuuming out periodically or they silt up
Ask whoever bids this
“Does my project actually need permeable paving to pass plan check, or is it optional?”
