Block Paved Driveway with Decorative Borders

Herringbone block paved driveway with contrasting borders, a geometric centre detail and a curved lawn edge

A completed Benchmark Paving driveway combining warm-toned block paving with contrasting borders, a decorative centre detail and a curved lawn edge.

A patterned entrance with a defined edge

The main driveway is laid in a herringbone pattern, with a blend of red, brown and charcoal tones. A dark perimeter frames the paving, while a lighter band and repeating dark squares mark the entrance from the pavement.

At the centre, an interlocking geometric motif adds a focal point without interrupting the paved parking area. The border curves around the raised lawn, giving the frontage a softer line beside the straight edges of the house and garage.
