Ideal for contemporary civic and retail schemes, this application called for Modal X in two attractive shades of grey to create the appropriate aesthetics for the scheme, making use of the subtle textures and striking visual effects achieved with this product.

Modal X paving was complemented by the use of Conservation X Kerb and Textured Edgings with a similar granite look, used along pathways and demarcation zones to complement the soft landscaping. In addition, products from Marshalls Bellitalia range were selected for the outdoor seating areas, including the Demetra Precious Stone Bench with Wooden Slats, a contemporary offering which features a self levelling system for ground slopes up to 6% for a natural touch, complemented by matching Bellitalia planters.
