Walkways, steps and garden walls work together to define the purpose of each architectural element in the landscape. Breaking up a swath of color with an accent color creates beauty, interest and purpose. This is where the border paver shines. Professional hardscapers use color, texture, lines and a combination of materials to bring more function and interest to outdoor installations.

Interlocking concrete pavers offer the most freedom out of any hardscaping materials due to their almost boundless variety of shapes, sizes, textures and colors. Expert landscape designers enhance the line of the walkways, steps and garden walls by combining various paver colors and textures. This accomplishes the extra level of sophistication that sets custom spaces apart. Border pavers are a common element used to help achieve this effect. These enhancements can be made with varying techniques. A single border in a contrasting color can accentuate the curved lines of a walkway. A double border of different textures allows homeowners to get a custom designer look.
