Modern driveway with large-format charcoal pavers, dark garage door, stone-clad columns, ornamental grasses, and path lights
What changed
Watch a cracked, weedy asphalt driveway become a striking modern entry — large-format charcoal pavers lead to a dark garage door framed by stone-clad columns and wall sconces, while ornamental grasses and low path lights line the edge at dusk. The 2026 driveway trend pairs permeable paver bases with clean geometric lines for curb appeal that also manages stormwater.
