Design With Intention With County Materials' Nature-Inspired Paver Colors
Color is one of the most powerful design tools when planning an outdoor living space. Color influences mood, defines how large or intimate an area feels, and sets the overall tone of the landscape. Choosing the right paver colors can enhance curb appeal, increase property value, and create a setting that feels cohesive and intentional.
A carefully selected palette helps tie together multiple design elements, from patios and walkways to retaining walls, fire features, and pool decks. Color plays a primary role and is typically one of the first decisions homeowners and contractors make during the landscape design process. County Materials makes that decision easier with a wide range of vibrant, long-lasting color options that stand out in the marketplace.
Nature-Inspired Design
County Materials’ paver colors are inspired by the natural world and designed to complement both traditional and modern architecture. Our palette includes warm and cool tones, light and dark shades, neutrals and bold hues, and solid or variegated options. This variety makes it possible to achieve any design vision, whether you want your hardscape to blend seamlessly into its environment or create a bold focal point.
We offer paver colors that coordinate with many of our other landscape products, including retaining walls, pool coping pavers, and step units.
This coordination allows for a seamless look across the entire project. A warm-toned paver can be paired with a matching retaining wall, or a cool-toned patio can be accented with coordinating coping around a pool. The result is a professional finish that prevents color clashing between various hardscape elements from multiple sources.
Precision Technology for Peak Performance
County Materials’ pavers are crafted using advanced manufacturing technologies that deliver vibrant, long-lasting color and performance. County Materials’ pavers are produced using Genesis Face-Mix Technology®, which bonds a high-strength, fine-aggregate surface layer to a structural base made with larger aggregates. Compared to standard through-body paver manufacturing, face-mix offers distinct advantages. With through-body pavers, the coarse aggregate that makes up the entire block can eventually show through as the surface wears. Genesis Face-Mix Technology prevents this by keeping the finer aggregate and pigment concentrated on the surface, preserving the paver’s smooth finish and original appearance for longer.
Now introducing the next generation of concrete pavers, Sentinel Sealed Technology™, a factory-applied penetrating primer and surface sealer. This dual-layer protection resists both organic and inorganic stains, UV damage, fading, efflorescence, and poly-haze. Because the primer and sealer are applied during production, pavers are ready for immediate use after installation, saving contractors and homeowners valuable time. Sentinel Sealed Technology simplifies long-term maintenance by minimizing the need for frequent cleaning or resealing, helping pavers maintain a refined appearance year after year.
Warm Paver Colors Create Inviting, Intimate Spaces

Cool Paver Colors Expand and Modernize Spaces

Our cool paver colors include both solid and blended options:
Solid
- Reflection
Blended
- Exalt

These shades are often chosen for contemporary designs, pool decks, and expansive patios. Cool tones coordinate well with minimalist landscaping, water features, and sleek architectural lines.
Design Inspiration and Color Selection Tips
Choosing a paver color palette involves more than picking a single shade. Thoughtful design can elevate a project and transform it into a visual focal point.
One approach is to create visual depth by using multiple paver colors. Using borders or accent bands in a contrasting color (or multiple colors) adds definition to patio edges, pathways, or gathering spaces. For a subtler effect, tone-on-tone patterns—using colors that are only slightly different from one another—create sophistication without stark contrast.
Practical considerations also play an important role. Homeowners should think about the color of their home’s siding, roofing, or existing hardscape elements and decide whether they want their pavers to complement or contrast with those features.
To simplify the decision-making process, County Materials offers Mood Boards with curated combinations for Modern, Contemporary, Traditional, and Rustic styles. These visual tools provide inspiration and help homeowners and professionals quickly narrow down their options.
