those are rubber stamps that are used to give it the texture... not from home depot (although u may be able to rent them now... ) the concrete is a colored mix, then they throw a color (usually darker) on top of it while the concrete is still "green" . then u wash it and apply the sealer

It looks great, I am just confused what method was used? That is the look I want, only darker.

Natural stone is cheaper than you think- they both are going to require a lot of prep work but I would think in the long run stone would come out looking better.
some options

I want stone. I think it makes the best looking patios.
It has to be flat and uniform in order to go on top of an existing concrete patio. That excludes most flagstone. It brings pavers as the best way to cover concrete.
I just don't want to settle for pavers. They are ok but, just not the look I want.
That is unless anyone knows of a better way?

Seb's high class.
He'll mow your grass.
He'll kick your ass.
And while his kidney stones pass,
He'll piss in a glass!
