Herringbone Paver Pattern

Herringbone is a widely known pattern used mostly for 4x8 bricks and often recognized from its alternating V-shape. It can be placed in two different ways to give off the alternating V-shape effect: 45 degree & 90 degree. Herringbone is a good choice for a clean and classic look for your hardscape projects.

Running Bond Pattern

Another popular pattern is the running bond pattern. It is often recognized by its straight, yet offset appearance. Running bond is laid in a straight line, with the next line on each side starting halfway through its neighboring brick. Running is one of the most popular patterns used world wide for hardscape projects because of its elegant appearance.
