3D Design Patterns
The way in which stone pieces are sized and placed relative to each other is referred to as a design pattern. They can also include variations in relief, edge style, and corner profiles. Design patterns play a practical construction role, but they can also be used to evoke a certain feeling. For example, a grid cobblestone pattern can evoke a feeling of security, whereas a fan cobblestone pattern might evoke whimsy and fun.
The design patterns shown below are basic geometries. By applying different combinations of color profiles or surface profiles to these, or by mixing geometries—you can create one-of-a-kind project designs. Use our Stone Designer (currently in beta), a free tool to visualize various stone materials in different design patterns. Experiment with color, surface finish, shape, size, joints, and mortar—all in one tool. Blend a variety of stone materials to create something unique, and apply it to your CAD drawings. When you’re done experimenting, download the finished CAD material texture for use in your drawings and presentations.
All of our design patterns are downloadable. Click on a pattern below and you’ll be directed to their detail page. From there, you’ll be able to download a zip file to your computer, which contains 2D and 3D files. File formats provided are .SKP for SketchUp, .DWG for AutoCAD or Revit, and .DXF for other CAD systems. Unless otherwise noted, our downloadable files are provided at no cost but are subject to our copyright.
