Hello everyone,
We are currently working on our paving.
The paving stones are from Kann Bausysteme and are called Parchetto.
We have the following issue. See pictures:

Is this type of installation acceptable? When the stones were laid, we were not at home but at work. Should the paver have been more careful?
Because the dark stones are placed directly next to the light ones, it looks very odd.
When we looked at the samples at the store before ordering, it was not clear that the color variations in this paving would be so pronounced.
The laying pattern looks like this:

We actually like this part. We are desperate and don’t know what to do. We don’t like how it looks at all.
Best regards
Koempy

Well, the OP actually wrote exactly that:

Kan said that he should have mixed the rows, like when laying laminate flooring.

The stones were basically ready on the pallet, but the rows should have simply been swapped sideways there.
It was agreed to prepare the base and lay the paving stones.
However, I expect a professional to point out such issues. And the paving stones were known beforehand as well.

toxicmolotof17 Jun 2016 16:28You would have been on the safe side if the contract had referred to the manufacturer’s installation instructions (which are available online) and if the bricks had been properly mixed.
It looks exactly as described: always one layer from one pallet, then one layer from the next pallet...
I wish you a lot of patience, time, and nerves if you want to have this corrected inexpensively.
Maybe someone will also realize that this is botched work.

We first spoke with him, and he said he didn’t know how he could have installed it differently.
We will contact the Kann field service again and request an on-site appointment. Especially since, together with the paver, we noticed that many stones are completely just one color and many have a very strong bluish tint.
We will definitely not accept it as it is.
We think the picture in the brochure has nothing to do with the stones that were delivered.
This is what we had envisioned:
What was delivered has nothing to do with this.
