Brett’s Lugano Block Paving range is a key choice for homeowners due to its stylish aesthetic. It is a contemporary paver which replicates natural granite.
However, many may not be aware that Lugano is one of Brett’s most popular products for use on commercial projects. This is a premium block paving solution, suitable for urban and high-end public spaces, such as shopping malls, retail parks and leisure facilities.
Choosing appropriate materials for use within commercial projects requires consideration of external factors, to ensure that the functionality of the product is not compromised.
Three things to consider when designing a commercial space
Durability
Commercial projects are exposed to high foot traffic activity, so they require a paving solution resilient enough to ensure that the investment was worthwhile, and will not involve frequent, costly maintenance.
Unsuitable products can also pose safety issues for members of the public, such as cracked or uneven paving.
Aesthetic
Businesses investing into their premises rely on attracting ‘customers’ of some form, so creating a space which is aesthetically impressive is significant for both developers and clients.
Public Safety
A commercial project must consider and ensure public safety for all facility users. With the unpredictable weather conditions in the UK, it is important that paving remains safe whether it is wet, dry, or frozen.
Lugano – Brett’s all-round solution
Our Lugano paving offers the technical performance that is required for paving busy urban spaces.
The product is hardwearing and is available in an 80mm thickness. Due to the textured finish, Lugano is also slip resistant, making it the perfect choice for weather exposed areas experiencing heavy foot fall or leisure activities and sports.
From a design perspective, the colours and textures replicate the look and feel of natural granite. Lugano is available in a light ‘Misty Grey’ or a deeper ‘Graphite Grey’, allowing designers to get creative and create contrast – from alternating the colours of the main paving, to contrasting the border or kerbs.
Reading School
Brett completed a project for Reading School, using Lugano paving. The school building itself is very modern in style, which is complimented well by the two-toned paving in both Misty Grey and Graphite Grey colours.
Outdoor school areas tend to experience a lot of activity – driving, walking, running, waiting, sports – Lugano paving continues to be visually impressive whilst remaining entirely functional.

If sustainability is at the heart of your project, Lugano Flow is the way to go.
