The red carpets we see in television shows serve to honour those who walk upon them. We see celebrities treading down the red path as they are crowded with cameras and bombarded with cheers from people watching along the sidelines. The red carpet is symbolic in the field of entertainment as all those who walk along it hold great importance, fame and renown. But what does the red carpet actually stand for?
Despite being nearly ritualistic in its purpose, the red carpet of fame and honour is just a plain, bright carpet. It has fundamentally no different from the carpet you’d see in your neighbour’s living room. In fact, it even serves the same function as the stepping stones leading up to your house — it paves the way.
Let’s talk about concrete pavers. Although not essential, they’re a crucial addition to the aesthetics of one’s home. Many homeowners use elaborate and extravagant decorations of stones and hedges to pave the way from point-A to point B within their homes. For instance, from the back door to the garden or from the courtyard to the front porch. One of the popular concrete pavers is driveways which serve as entry and exit paths for a homeowner’s car.
Many of us think that concrete pavers have practical uses, and all they do is mark a path. However, we at Vicmix would beg to differ. Just like red carpets, we can design concrete pavers simply to elevate the beauty and aesthetics of a house. We’ve seen and built concrete pavers that, while they lead to nowhere, are so strategically placed that they emphasized the artistic design of a backyard. As owners of our home, we have full control over the layout and design, and we can improve our house’s aesthetics however we want.
We at Vicmix have no problems providing you with the supplies for your elaborate concrete pavers. With materials out of the way, you can design your concrete pavers however you like. Just like a red carpet, concrete pavers can add a sense of luxury to your home if you design it accordingly. In fact, we believe that they’re one of the most versatile designs you can add to your property.
The most popular method of installing a paver is creating a path by laying down blocks of concrete. Herein lies its versatility.
Did you know that everything you see on your PC or mobile phone is just small blocks of images called pixels? Each individual block is strategically placed in terms of colour to form a bigger image. The designs of concrete pavers work the same way.
With a skilled designer, you can install a concrete paver in any fashion you want. We’ve seen star-shaped pavers with finely-cut concrete blocks fitted together like a jigsaw puzzle. Meanwhile, we’ve also seen place concrete paths leading up to a front porch that may seem unassuming at first, but are actually made of coloured concretes that light up during the dusk and dawn hours.
