Custom aggregate concrete landscape pavers are designed for an entry walkway. In a two-step process, the rock is exposed and then ground down. The resulting finish leaving half of the concrete panel rough and its counterpart smooth. When left rough, the surface reads as green and mossy, contrasting the subtle silvery blues and pinks revealed when slicing through the pebble mix. Perhaps because of its undeniably haptic quality, we call this study Concrete Carpets.
