Overview

The creator demonstrates the manual process of installing individual artificial turf squares into a grid of permeable pavers. The video shows a montage of clips including applying green adhesive into the paver openings, taking turf squares from a bag, and carefully placing and pressing each piece into the grid by hand. The sequence of shots builds from an empty paver area to a nearly completed, patterned turf and paver surface.
