What Color of Pavers for a Red Georgian Brick Home?

Decorative outdoor landscape pavers can add beauty to your home design. If you have an exterior home finish constructed with Georgian red brick, you want to select a paving stone that complements the rich red tones in your bricks. Colored pavers draw attention to your exterior home decor and increase your overall curb appeal.
  1. Slate Gray

    • Slate gray paving stones complement the rich red hues in Georgian brick. Many Georgian bricks have color variations that intermix flecks of gray-colored stone with red clay. Some slate gray pavers are made from cement and are painted or stained gray to get their color. Other gray pavers are made from granite or slate.

    White Cement

    • If you want an exterior design that contrasts with your red brick, you can install pure white cement pavers. Weathered Georgian brick often appears burgundy or rusty red in color, so white paving stones harmonize with the dark color. White cement pavers stand out against dark green grass and earthy mulched landscape to provide curb appeal. Over time, white cement pavers lose their stark color and become soiled. The end result is a paver that looks light pale gray instead of pure white.

    Terra Cotta

    • Terra cotta pavers accentuate the reddish-orange hues found in Georgian brick. Due to terra cotta's sturdy outdoor appeal and inexpensive price tag, it is a common paving stone material. Terra cotta pavers look especially attractive if you enjoy decorating with potted flowers during the spring and summer months.

    Modeled Stone

    • You can add eye-appealing pattern to your yard by installing modeled stone pavers. These paving stones do not have one solid color because they are designed to mimic the natural hues found in rocks and stones. Most modeled paving stones have a strong gray tint, but they often include other colors like tan, beige, black, brown, pink, yellow, purple and gold.
