Two things define how stamped concrete looks: the stamp pattern and the colour. The right choice depends on use, architecture and surrounding materials.
Pattern options
Stamped concrete uses natural stone, cobblestone, brick, wood and slate-look stamps. The same area takes on a completely different character with different stamps.
By use
For driveways and car parks, shallow, even patterns are both attractive and practical. Walkways and terraces can take more pronounced stone patterns.
Colour matching
The base colour and the release (antique) colour together give the pattern depth. Tones that match the façade, roof and natural stone in the garden create a coherent look.
Slip resistance
Around pools and on ramps, grip must be considered alongside the pattern.
Decide with a sample
A catalogue photo can look different from a real installation because of light and scale; see a real project or sample if possible.
