Hello,
maybe someone here knows:
You can lay paving stones on a gravel bed with sand in between. Sometimes I see areas in the city paved with square granite cobblestones, but there the joints are closed and solid – I assume with cement.
Is it possible to do the same in your own garden? Is the same base enough, meaning compacted gravel, or do you need a concrete foundation for that?
Good luck

What kind of development area is this? From what I know, for sealed surfaces, appropriate infiltration on the property is required. This means that water collected from drainage channels or point drains must infiltrate on the property itself, either through point or surface infiltration.
Even for a driveway or terrace made of permeable material, infiltration is only possible to the extent that the subbase allows. Eventually, limits are reached, and for example, with a driveway made of gravel or crushed stone, water must be drained away during heavy or prolonged rainfall.
