I looked at the home with my favorite brick and it looked awful, horrible, terrible,… I went to see a house with my 2nd choice sample and it was great.
See before you sign, or you may regret it later.

Yes!! This is exactly what we want to do. That's why I was asking if anyone had used Belgrade pavers to share what color they used with the hope that I could drive by and look at their driveway. Choosing from a small sample board doesn't even show the multi-color aspect. The only real way to see is, as you suggest, look at a driveway with that color. Our installer would have to look back through their jobs one by one to ascertain what color was used because they aren't sorted by color in their records. Thanks for confirming this "I need to see" approach.
