Whether it's an expansive coloured concrete patio or a stepping stone pathway through the palms, great attention is paid to achieving a visual balance between the soft and hard elements.For this project, designer Mark Wilson specified Peter Fell coloured concrete both outside and in. With the pool surrounds matching the interior flooring in the main living rooms, there is an easy flow between the two areas."The natural, textured look and warm tones of the Peter Fell coloured concrete enhance the tropical feel," says Wilson. "And it ensures the hard landscaping doesn't overpower the outdoor living area, providing a softening influence." Custom flagstones from Peter Fell create the garden pathways Coloured concrete was also poured to create the smaller flagstones that form pathways through the garden. The expanse of concrete has been broken up with extensive landscaping.Peter Fell coloured concrete is a highly practical option for a new home or renovation project. As the colour is an integral part of the concrete surfaces, it won't chip off or wear away, even in high traffic areas.The concrete is available in a wide range of colours, including terracotta, sandstone and many other earthy tones. The system can be used to introduce an aged look, and will work in with a variety of exposed aggregate finishes. This ensures it is just as effective for traditional, European-inspired villas as it is for contemporary designs.
