Also since we have brick facade around front door read its best not to have too busy if a pattern. I’m thinking the porch should maybe have paver pattern of 2 or 3 different sizes ?
Maybe have the walkways and porch a 2-way running bond design like this

And driveway will have this pattern , 4 different sizes,like this pic

This is our back patio. Front driveway and pathways will be same. I wouldn’t change it up and would choose one consistent option.

That looks nice Allison.What about the walkways though? The Paver catalogs all seem to have the running bond pattern.
Maybe I should do the driveway and porch same pattern and walkways a different pattern(running bond?)

Everything is same pattern. We haven’t done the front walkways and driveway yet.

I would do same pattern but a border of same size pavers to distinguish it from path. It is a good visual cue to stay on driveway and sidewalk. Should be very pretty.

thanks Flo! Hmmm since I have a brick facade thinking simpler pattern(running bond with only 2 paver sizes) so it doesn't compete with the brick? I was reading brick can get too busy if the surrounding porch/walkway has too much going on?

And for the driveway I'd do the 4 different paver sizes and I like the idea of having the border to break it up a bit from the path.

Do you think that'll work? I just worry that since we are doing so much concrete pavers it'll be overwhelming with all the same pattern. I'm really stumped

Do the 4 size pattern on the driveway and single size on border, and you will have some variation on the border as they "cut and size" for any curves, etc. The pattern won't compete with your brick at all because they are on different "planes". Driveway on flat horizontal plane and brick on vertical. Should not be an issue.

I like it when there is a border. Ours all will have a darker colour around the edge.

Thanks everyone. :-)Yes now I agree! I should do the same pattern and with same edging. I haven't locked in on the Cameron Cream color yet. We do have it in our backyard, love it. Goes well with house color (kind of beige with green/grey undertones). The Cameron Cream does fade a bit so thinking that'll work next to our antique brick facade & it won't clash.

Forgot to provide after pictures.Here they are,2 years later! Since we have droughts decided to get rid of lawn and put in drought-tolerant plants.

not going to lie I miss my lawn lol
