Your outdoor living spaces will come to life the moment you choose a paver pattern. Paver patterns can be used to draw attention to particular locations, give the patio design depth, divide up a space or an "outdoor room," and generate compelling visual interest.

The traditional herringbone paver pattern is used, using a standard 4x8 brick. We love this traditional low country look.

Herringbone Paver Patterns

Rows of zigzagging pavers, either in a diagonal pattern or a straight up and down pattern, are used to create herringbone patterns. A series of L-shaped patterns are created when one paver's short edge rests on the next's long edge. Herringbone typically uses smaller rectangular pavers, although larger pavers can also be used for a distinctive, contemporary design. Herringbone is a great option for driveways because of how well the interlocking design withstands movement from tire pressure.

Running Bond

Where the paver crosses the joint below it, the design resembles that of brickwork. Because of its low cutting and waste requirements, the running bond pattern is particularly common. The pavers can all be the same size, or for something altogether different, experiment with utilizing varied row widths and paver lengths. Curved paths and patio spaces are perfect applications for the running bond pattern. (Note: Little rectangular pavers are necessary to create a curve in a running bond design; the narrower they are, the better.

Random

Homeowners like random patterns because they give projects a handcrafted, organic sense. There are numerous distinct patterns that will give you a random feeling, depending on the paver you select. A paver layout that appears random on occasion isn't even a pattern!
