The owners wanted to replace the original tapestry mosaics on the pathway & verandah, which were in a sad state of deterioration, with something more visually engaging and classic, but still appropriate to the California Bungalow style of the house, in colours that complemented the paint scheme of the facade. The project coordinator suggested the Liverpool pattern laid on the diagonal, as both spaces were wide and could accommodate this layout. The strong diagonals of the pavement subtly echo the pitch of the roofline. He also recommended the removal of the mission brown cement garden edging, replacing it with half bullnose bricks that match those of the house. The finished result is a stylish blend of old and new, where path and verandah are now one with the house.
