Why do 16x24 pavers suit pool decks?
A 16x24 paver suits a pool deck because the rectangle gives fewer joints than small squares while staying a mid size between small squares and large planks. Laid parallel to the pool edge, the long side leads the eye along the water, and the 2 to 3 proportion works in a running bond or in the French pattern sets used on many terraces.
Which colors do 16x24 travertine pavers come in?
16x24 travertine pavers come tumbled, which softens the edges and gives the stone an aged, porous Old World surface. Cream and beige travertines include Light Standard, Light Select, Chiaro, Latte, Country Classic, Durango Cream, Tuscany Ivory, Tuscany Beige and Tuscany Porcini. Browns include Walnut, Noce, Mocha Noce and Tuscany Walnut, Silver is the gray, and Scabos and Tuscany Scabas are blends of cream, gold and rust. Lighter travertines absorb less heat than dark ones, which is why cream colors are the usual pick for a deck in full sun.
Which marble, limestone and other stones come in 16x24?

Is there matching 16x24 pool coping?
16x24 pool coping pieces come in the same size as the pavers, so a deck and its pool edge can be planned in one stone. Coping pieces in 16x24 include Chiaro travertine and Myra Shellstone limestone, which have matching 16x24 pavers in the same stone, and a Silver marble coping. More coping, including travertine coping with bullnose and modern edges, is in pool copings.
