cute hipster girls (just kidding)

why do you need a driveway when most cities provide curb parking for free? also you shouldn't design for a car- design for the people!

Cats are great, but hard to roller-blade on.

I wanted to bring this one back.

I'll pass my afternoon tomorrow pouring through 4specs.com but wanted to see if any of you doing residential work like a particular paver/paving solution. I'm working with a 1960s Case Study-inspired house and am interested in something that would be both great for the front "motor court" and then through to the backyard around the pool.

Goodnight.

Okay, then crack a joke.

Anyone? Humiliate me?

Any experience with slate pavers?

Naturally cleaved, slate is slippery as shit when in gets wet. The cheap stuff is also prone to exfoliation if you are in an area that gets freezing weather.

How dumb is slate gravel in an area that gets freezing weather?

Slate gravel, really?

Well any kind of gravel is not friendly to snow blowers, so ask your clients if they intend to use one.

saw these last weekend. anyone know who makes this or the product name?

drivable grass by a company called soil retention...go to soilretention.com...

awesome! many thanks!

the spacing of the squares look a little sparse compared to the drivable grass though...look at grasscrete also

These Sydney pavers have some interesting designs and patterns in their gallery.

Personally, I'm a sucker for anything natural stone.

Wonder what the shipping is on concrete blocks from Australia?

Gotta love spammers raising threads 8 years dead.

I actually used a subsurface grass paving product on my last house to park one of my kids cars on it.  I can't remember the actual product but once the grass grew in you couldn't tell it was meant as parking space ( exactly what I was intending ) The rigid plastic grid sits below the surface of the grass and holds a smaller compacted gravel / sand mixture that supports the weight of a small car and then I just sodded over top. The first year I was more worried about the firmness and root network of the lawn but after the second year it was fine.  I still wait till the snow has melted and the lawn is dried out in the spring before parking the cars over it so that it has a chance to firm up after the winter snow, but we park a good size Toyota Tacoma on it all year and it works very well.
