Dulwich, Alleyns School
Posted: 20 Apr, 2015
Materials:
Yellow Granite & CEDEC Footpath Gravel
Details:
The granite colour chosen for this scheme was buff/yellow, which gives a beautiful flowing variation across the project.
The raw blocks have grey‚ white‚ buff, and yellow structures‚ meaning that individual stones can have 2 and 3 colour tones running through them. The finishes chosen were bush hammered, which lightens the original colour, and flame texturing, which creates a pinky-red hue when applied to yellow.
Products supplied include setts 100x200x100mm and paving 300x600x50mm. The main features are the large blocks used as benches‚ walling, and steps. They define the areas and add to the visually pleasing effect. Other items supplied include cladding‚ coping‚ planters, and CEDEC® gravel for the tree pits.
