Enhance Your Driveway’s Curb Appeal with Travertine

Using travertine outdoor applications, like the driveway, is not uncommon. In fact, even before travertine tiles became popular as indoor flooring, they have already been used as building material for the exterior of structures like the Sacre Coeur Basilica in Paris, the Colosseum in Rome, the ancient buildings in the city of Hierapolis in Turkey, and the Getty Center in Los Angeles. Hence, a travertine driveway can be a great addition to your home, whether as an upgrade or as a means to make your properties exterior look and feel more elegant and opulent. Here are tips to decorate your travertine driveway with travertine pavers:

• Looking for a versatile paver? Try the tumbled edge travertine – Like travertine tiles, travertine pavers come in different finishes, except that they are designed specifically for outdoor applications. Tumbled edge travertine pavers are extremely versatile for any installation, including driveways. They provide a timeless appeal while adding an element of opulence and grandeur to your outdoor landscape without the garish dissonance. The tumbled finish retains the natural characteristics of travertine to provide good grip for your feet and for your cars, even when wet. This way, a travertine driveway will be safer and prevent your vehicles from skidding.
  
  
• Create an old world or rustic look with chiseled edge pavers - For a weathered or worn look, go for travertine pavers in a chiseled edge finish. They are perfect for creating a rustic semblance while adding a touch of elegance to your driveway. Like brushed and chiseled travertine tiles, these pavers offer a rugged look with unmatched durability that can handle heavy foot and vehicle traffic.

• Combine two textures or colors – The best thing about travertine pavers is their versatility that lets you be creative and create unique and bold patterns to suit your personal style or to add character to your home.

• Order free samples – Reputable suppliers can provide free samples upon request. That way, you can see how an actual finish or color looks like before you order in bulk for your travertine driveway.
