Walking around Copenhagen the other day, we came across these paving stones. Four different ways to re-imagine paved streets. If there has to be pavement then something like these options, are, I think, a more desirable solution. Some environmental positives about paving stones: more plant life can come through, less heat in the city, and more absorption of rain water. I was first turned on to the power of pavers in A Pattern Language, the classic architecture and urban design book by Christopher Alexander and others.
That’s all. Hope you have a great weekend.
