As summer 2024 unfolds, homeowners across West Yorkshire are increasingly looking to enhance their outdoor spaces with stylish and functional driveways. This year’s trends in driveway design are a blend of innovative materials, vibrant colours, and eye-catching patterns, ensuring that your home’s entrance makes a striking first impression. Here, we explore the hottest trends in resin, block paving, gravel and Indian flagstone driveways.
Resin Driveways
Resin-bound driveways continue to gain popularity due to their seamless appearance and durability. This summer the trend is leaning towards a mix of natural hues and bold colours to create unique, personalised looks. Shades like warm Arctic Bronze, and Cocoa, and cool, contemporary Blue Mist are in high demand. Homeowners are also experimenting with vibrant accents such as Pearl Chestnut.
Incorporating contrasting borders using different resin finishes is a popular way to create a visually striking driveway.
Block Paved Driveways
Block paving remains a classic choice for driveways, but 2024 brings a fresh twist, the timeless herringbone pattern is evolving with larger blocks and varied angles, providing a contemporary edge to this traditional layout.
Colour-wise, there’s a shift towards earthy tones such as terracotta, sandy yellows, and deep charcoal, which complement the natural surroundings. Additionally, multi coloured blocks that blend several shades create a dynamic, textured effect, adding depth and interest to the driveway.
Gravel Driveways
Gravel driveways have always been perfect for those seeking a low-maintenance yet attractive option. The trend for summer 2024 is all about combining functionality with aesthetic appeal. Homeowners are opting for a mix of gravel sizes and colours to create visually stimulating surfaces. Popular choices include Golden Corn, and Heritage, which can be combined to form intricate patterns and borders.
Incorporating edging materials like timber, metal or stone is really trending, as it helps contain the gravel and adds a clean, defined edge to the driveway. Permeable solutions are also gaining traction, as they help with water drainage and provide an environmentally friendly option.
Indian Flagstone Driveways
Indian flagstone driveways are renowned for their natural beauty and durability. This summer, the trend is towards using larger slabs to create a more seamless and expansive look. The colours of choice range from cool greys and soft greens to warm browns and vibrant reds, reflecting the diverse geological origins of the stones.
