Can I combine different aggregate sizes in one driveway?

Yes, similar to combining colours — this is achieved by pouring separate sections with different aggregate mixes, divided by a joint or forming line, rather than blending sizes within one continuous area.

This is a genuine, achievable design approach for creating visual variation across different zones of your driveway or outdoor area, though it adds planning and formwork complexity compared to a single consistent aggregate throughout.

Planning this before the pour, with clear agreement on where each aggregate size will be used, ensures a genuinely clean, well-executed result.
