The Challenge

Premium paving was required to complement a contemporary leisure facility within a housing development.

House Builder, Prestige Homes, built a high spec swimming pool and gym situated within a housing development. The leisure facility was purpose built to service the nearby farmhouses. Premium hard landscaping was required to complement the contemporary leisure facility.

Due to the scale of the external landscape, it was important that the paving design made use of definition and variety to create focal points of visual interest. The hard landscaping needed to accommodate access for maintenance vehicles and facilitate future entertainment provision including marquee assembly.

The Solution

Tobermore’s Braemar and Artro premium paving accentuate the building and its surroundings.

Tobermore provided complimentary design services and product samples which helped client decision making. Upon consideration of Tobermore’s landscape design proposal, Prestige Homes opted for Braemar and Artro paving complemented by Fusion Kerb. The cool contemporary greys were selected to add to the project’s modern aesthetic.

Premium concrete paver ‘Braemar’ was selected to provide the user with a high-end granite aesthetic while also complimenting the stonework façade of the building. Braemar was utilised in Innis Black to act as a buffer against the building. This meant that the grey mix of Alto Silver and Cara Slate did not clash with the stonework.

Artro’s small linear paving blocks were utilised to define the entrance to the building while providing a guideline of where parking areas end. Artro was designed to break up the areas of Braemar paving by providing an edge detail and defined patterns. Prestige Homes selected Steel and Carbon cool grey tones to complement the building.

While kerbing was required functionally, Fusion Kerb was selected for its beautiful granite aggregate finish which provided design continuity on the scheme.
