Brick Patterns
With so many different type brick on the market, there are many different brick patterns to choose from. From the basic basket weave to the herringbone brick patterns and running bond with variations in the basketweave brick patterns, we can create that individual look you are seeking. Brick masonry is a creative art, the more you look at the brick patterns the more you can create artistic looks that fit in to the areas and themes you are looking for. Picking those brick patterns is very important part of the process of creating a special look that is just right for you.
Stacked Bond
Sometimes called Jack-on-Jack, the stacked bond pattern features bricks stacked in even rows and columns. Its simple straight lines can make a smaller space seem more expansive. It also works well for contemporary designs. Running Bond Simple, versatile, and ever popular, the running bond pattern is commonly used for both patios and paths. It can be laid straight for a clean and orderly look, or set at slight angles to create a curve. Because of its simple design, running bond is well suited to covering small areas. Basket Weave For casual, cottage like design, try the basket-weave pattern. Instead of creating a "field," as with running bond, the bricks are laid horizontally and vertically in pairs, with each pair creating a "tile." Basket weave can be used by itself, or if space permits, easily incorporated into another pattern. Half Basket Weave Like the basket weave above, try the half basket-weave pattern. Instead of creating a "field," as with running bond, the bricks are again laid horizontally and vertically in pairs, but with a vertical brick between each pair. Herringbone Of the various patterns, herringbone is one of the most formal and has been a staple in traditional paths and patios for centuries. Unlike basket weave, the herringbone pattern, with its zigs and zags, works well when it's used to cover irregular areas. Diagonal Herringbone Same as the herringbone but laid on a diagonal. Herringbone is one of the most formal and has been a staple in traditional paths and patios for centuries. Unlike basket weave, the herringbone pattern, with its zigs and zags, works well when it's used to cover irregular areas. |
