Crazy paving

Crazy paving is a means of hard-surfacing used outdoors, most frequently in gardens. Paving stones of irregular size and shape are laid in a haphazard manner sometimes with mortar filling the gaps between.
The method originated in ancient Rome.[1] The design was half-way between mosaic and sectile and primarily used chippings of white and colored limestone.[2] It sets up the paving stones without geometric grid so that they are used as they naturally break as opposed to being cut in geometric shapes.[3]
Crazy paving became popular during the 1970s and the use of just one type of stone is among the modern updates.[4] Today, the hard-surfacing approach is also used as a means to recycle paving materials.[5]
