How can Marshalls inspire your project?
To bring your construction or landscaping project to life, our concrete paving product portfolio comprises multiple elements that you might want to consider. If you’re looking to transform a less-than-inspiring setting or complement styles being used elsewhere in your project, we can provide you with numerous options that are certain to leave a lasting impression.
Colour: For complete creativity in the design process, inject colour into the landscape with our spectrum ranging from warm, subtle tones to cooler, contemporary hues or even bold, vibrant shades – adding personality, vitality and contrast to a finished project.
Blends: Now more than ever, designers are looking to blend colours in order to create truly unique landscapes. The deliberate mixture of different elements – colours, textures or sizes – creates focal points and stand-out surroundings.
Size: Mix sizes and facets to create patterns and decorations that define a landscape. From smaller slabs that typically suit areas where traffic flows to larger options that are common for pedestrian areas, explore the variety we have to offer.
Pattern: Keep it simple or be ambitious; using patterns in your paving designs can prove an effective wayfinding solution or act to break up larger spaces and enhance the contours and shapes of other built structures.
