Other choices are more eye catching. A brick or cut-slate walk, for example, suggests a formal elegance and makes reference to Colonial American design. A walk fashioned of wood decking, blocks or rounds cut from a log has a casual feeling, and may be most appropriate for a retreat or summer home. A walk of randomly shaped flagstones falls somewhere between the previous alternatives in the feeling it conveys. The variety of sizes and shapes of the stones creates an interesting texture, while maintaining a feeling of solidity and permanence. Flagstone is often an excellent option.
