Project Description
A compass inlay is a striking way to break up a large, expansive hardscape area. Here we used contrasting colors and textures to make the design stand out.

Small and unattractive concrete steps were removed and replaced with wide paver steps trimmed with soft bullnose pavers. The homeowners were not only pleased with the visual results, but were also happy to have even steps and a landing instead of the trip hazard caused by shallow treaders.
These meandering pathways lead to guest cottages, quiet patios and meeting rooms throughout a popular resort and conference center in Sonoma. The cobble-style pavers complement the property’s old-world charm.
This custom inlay creates a unique focal point at the University of San Francisco campus, featuring a compass rose in the University colors of green and gold. The center piece is a custom-cut marble slab that was gifted to the university.
You can add design interest to your driveway by selecting a different paver style or color to highlight an entryway, pathway or parking area. Here we chose a lighter paver to contrast the field pavers and break up a large hardscape area.
We love pavers around a pool. Not only are they pleasing to the eye, but they can be easily lifted to access pipes below the surface. Here we installed pavers at the coping to match the patio deck pavers.
This project consisted of replacing an old, crumbling asphalt surface with attractive pavers. Hayley designed the layout so that the pavers would “flow” around an existing planter and water feature as it led to the house.
Here we removed a dated and rotten landing and set of wooden steps. The new steps tie nicely into the paver driveway and walkway and are beautifully finished with bullnose edges. The homeowners were pleased with the curb appeal we created by removing the old wood and concrete.
Over the years, this patio’s bricks had shifted, making its surface uneven and dangerous. We re-graded the entire area, installed drainage to resolve water-related issues, and replaced the bricks. The new, cobble-style pavers in colors of charcoal, terra cotta, red and gold blend in nicely with the original adobe building’s clay tiles, creating a welcoming space to enjoy the culinary delights at this popular Sonoma resort.
