Traditional Red Brick Patios and Walkways Allow Grass to Climb Through

These classic red bricks, laid with spacing that allows grass to grow through, add an old fashioned landscaping design. Use these red bricks as a patio, walkway or driveway. If you're looking for a classic patio style, consider traditional red bricks that are designed to allow grass to grow between them. This is perhaps the quintessential old style patio design featured in many large estates of yesteryear. The bricks were laid years and years ago and gaps developed over time. The carefree estate lifestyle allowed grass or weeds to grow between the bricks. This type of red brick style is ideal for those in older homes or those who want to create an Old World look. Ask your contractor to leave small gaps between the bricks, but not enough to create large sections where weeds can get through. This classic red brick patio style also works well for driveways and walkways, as it continues the look throughout your landscaping.
