What it is, and why it works.
A contrasting border is the picture frame of a stamped surface. A darker band in a different pattern defines the edge, ties to your landscaping and makes an ordinary rectangle look intentional. A medallion at the center, such as a compass rose, a monogram or a circular fan, gives a patio or entry court a focal point guests notice.
We create borders and inlays with stencils and multiple stamp patterns, color them with separate release agents and hand-detail the transitions. Whether it is a simple double border for a Nashville patio or a custom medallion, it is planned on paper first so the proportions are right.
Four things done right.

Scaled layouts show proportions before anything is poured.
Contrasting colors
Separate release agents give clean border and field separation.
Custom shapes
Compass roses, circles, scrolls and monograms from stencils.
Crisp edges
Careful forming so lines stay sharp and straight.

Can a border be a different color than the field?
Yes. We color the border with its own base and release agent so the contrast is sharp but harmonious.
