A distinctive feature of this patio is the curved brick retaining wall, which elegantly defines a raised section of the stonework. This half-moon shaped wall, constructed with reddish-brown bricks and finished with neatly capped steps, not only adds a touch of classic charm but also provides a functional transition between different levels of the outdoor space. The integration of this brickwork with the natural stone paving demonstrates a thoughtful approach to design, blending different textures and materials harmoniously.
The entire setup points to a well-planned and expertly executed landscaping project, providing a versatile and visually appealing outdoor living area.
Mint Fossil Sandstone is one of the most popular and aesthetically pleasing types of Indian sandstone paving used for patios and garden paths. It is immediately recognizable by its unique and varied palette of soft, warm colours, typically featuring a blend of cream, pale yellow, and soft beige/buff tones, often accented with shades of mint green and occasional streaks of warm orange. This natural variation ensures that no two slabs are exactly alike, creating a vibrant, natural, and timeless look that complements both traditional cottage gardens and more contemporary outdoor designs.
What truly gives this stone its distinctive character, and its name, are the occasional fossil markings and veins visible on the surface. These faint fossil shapes and mineral deposits, typically appearing as dark brown or black patterns, were formed over thousands of years and add a unique, organic detail that sparks visual interest and conversation. Often quarried in the Rajasthan area of North West India, the stone is highly valued for its natural beauty, affordability, and practical qualities.
