What should you keep in mind when choosing your patio?
Aesthetic Integration:
Your patio is an extension of your home and serves as a transition to the outdoor space. For a seamless transition, you can choose the same tile for both indoors and outdoors, making your garden a natural extension of your living space. In this case, a sawn or blue-honed finish are excellent choices, or a gray-honed finish for a concrete look.
Are you actually looking for a contrasting effect?
In that case, you could opt for a bold flamed and brushed finish that draws the eye just a little to the outside.
Consistency from the inside out brings peace of mind

Shape and Layout Pattern:
A square laying pattern with minimal joints creates a serene and harmonious look. For those who prefer a more creative approach, a playful laying pattern offers greater dynamism. A Roman pattern, for example, combines different sizes in a specific repeating pattern. Smaller sizes allow for greater design flexibility. Feel free to combine blue stone with other materials, such as wood or cobblestones, for a unique effect.

Tile size:
Large tiles (60×60, 80×80, or even 1×1 meter) are currently popular, but it’s best to take the surroundings, available space, and weight into account. Larger tiles are more expensive and less suitable for smaller patios, where slightly smaller tiles (such as 40×40) look better.

Thickness of the deck:
A thickness of 2 cm is usually sufficient. For high-traffic areas or where extra load-bearing capacity is required, we recommend a thickness of 3 cm.
Eco-friendly and sustainable:
Our blue stone is quarried locally and processed with respect for the environment. The durability of this stone, which effortlessly withstands the test of time, contributes to a low ecological footprint—an increasingly important criterion in contemporary landscape architecture and the circular economy.
Low maintenance:
This stone, which is millions of years old, requires little maintenance and retains its elegant appearance over the years. Any grease stains will wash away naturally with rain.
Exclusive look:
For an even more exclusive look, you can choose our Vinalmont mesh limestone. This unique, slightly grayer limestone develops a beautiful white patina over time, giving your patio a distinctive character.
