Greek Paving
What
A painted effect to emulate some types of paving found in Greece. The effect is pretty much the same as a Voronoi Diagram, but with rounded edges.

Development & Progress
Later / Current Status

Hello, this is so nice, but I would like to know with what kind of color did you use?
It’s just white masonry paint over bare concrete. 🙂
Hello, I would love a Greek patio and I have someone who is going to do it,however I am having difficulty finding the flat stones required. I would like to know how I could purchase stones exactly like the stone in your design.
Thank you Margaret

Hi does this paint last well through a snowy damp cold wet winter ?
I used Masonry paint. It looks great for quite a while. It doesn’t really fade or disappear, but it does get dirty. I’ve painted it twice. You can see what it looks like after 4 1/2 years by seeing the photo where I’m part way through re-doing it. 🙂
Fantastic
Hi I’ve just made a concrete base
Can’t afford patio
Thinking of this style
How’s the paint holding up
Hey, great work i love it. I want to do the same with real stones and white mortar, but i cant find round stones like they use in greece or likely in your painted design. Despite it beeing painted, did you know how this flooring is called or at least the name of this stones they used to use for that type or floor?
I thank you in advance
Kind regards
