12 wonderful proposals for walkways and outdoor paving options for your home

Decorating our outdoor spaces is often overlooked when we set up a new home. We have a tendency to postpone this project, promising ourselves that we will do it later. As a result, our outdoor areas can start to look neglected.

So, this summer, why not try to get stuck in: you will get some extra space to dedicate to relaxation and entertaining. The first thing you need to pay attention to is the paving: whether it is a driveway or the paving of an entire area of your garden, it is important to find the right solution for your setting.

Below, we suggest 12 wonderful options for paving, pathways and outdoor flooring to choose from.

1. Brick pathway

The simplest way to pave your driveway or your garden paths is to use simple, regular bricks (perhaps curved to create a bit of movement).

2. Alternating bricks and flowerbeds

4. Elegant pathways

Large, white stepping slabs flanked by similar-sized river rocks will give an elegant and refined look to your garden pathways.

5. Paving slabs and grass

What if you use paving slabs set out in a regular pattern? You could grow grass between the joints (always to be kept neat, of course). A perfect solution for a driveway or an elegant garden path.

Large, rectangular paving slabs can form a meandering path, surrounded with pebbles and gravel (or small bushes and shrubs).

Canadian stone offers interesting design ideas for driveways or garden walkways.

Looking like train tracks, simple wooden beams can guide you home. Perfect when combined with stones, gravel or grass.

Large tiles arranged in a regular pattern and held together by a network of bricks: an ideal solution for your entertaining area.
