Hello everyone!
We are considering the paving design for our courtyard and driveway.
We have built a “modern” city villa and want the paving to match this style.
We have basically settled on anthracite-colored paving stones...
One supplier offers a stone (Lusit Crescendo) in different sizes, and we are unsure which to choose! Does anyone have actual photos of their paving in any of the sizes they plan to use?
30x20x8 cm (12x8x3 inches) at 16.50€ per m² (square meter)
40x20x8 cm (16x8x3 inches) at 19.50€ per m² (square meter)
30x10x8 cm (12x4x3 inches) at 18.00€ per m² (square meter)
We need to pave just under 160 m² (square meters) in total...
Are there any experiences regarding the “stability” of the paved area related to the different stone sizes?

Choosing the right size also means you don’t bring small stones into the house.What size do you have?I quite like this solution, both practical and visually.
I’m wondering: is it possible to lay down only gravel first, and then pave later, for example after a year?
Would there be anything special to consider in that case?

Is there anything special to consider when doing that?That’s no problem, but you’ll basically be paying twice.guckuck2 schrieb:

There’s always something going on. You hit the nail on the head.
However, it’s outside and it’s nature. I let the leaves play with the wind. Twice a year we vacuum them up.

At this point: there is a gravel grid system for under the gravel. It costs money, no question. But for us, it was important that the path around the house wouldn’t sink under wheelbarrows, strollers, and bicycles. Installing it was very easy; the grids are laid on compacted, leveled crushed stone/sand and cut to size with scissors. Weed membrane is already integrated. It can even be used with a wheelbarrow without gravel on top, and the manufacturer specifies a load capacity of 400 kg (880 lbs) with the appropriate subbase...
