Concrete colors of walls and steps

9 years ago

Are the concrete stairs a different color than the concrete wall? We're making a sandstone concrete wall that looks similar in color to your wall. I like the contrast in your design. If different, what color did you use?

Yes. The concrete stairs are natural grey concrete with a 'top-cast' sand finish. The walls are actually a block wall with a stucco finish to match the architecture. The stucco color was selected by the house architect & client.
