Hardscapes are artscapes.

What happens here

A distinct secondary paver type, identified as 'Unilock Mattoni', is strategically incorporated into the design. This paver is laid in a classic herringbone pattern and utilized in two different colors to create a vibrant visual flow and texture contrast. A darker accent border is skillfully employed to define the perimeters of these paver sections and to visually separate distinct patterns, establishing clear demarcation lines and significantly enhancing the patio's overall artistic appeal. The narrator highlights that this secondary paver acts as the primary accent element, effectively tying together all the diverse components of the patio's intricate design.

Goal: Recognize the specific secondary paver type, its laying pattern, and the functional/aesthetic role of the accent border
