The herringbone pattern is one of the most popular and durable block paving designs. Blocks are laid at either a 45-degree or 90-degree angle to create an interlocking “V” shape. This pattern is ideal for high-traffic areas like driveways because it provides excellent strength and resistance to shifting.
The basket weave pattern creates the appearance of interwoven blocks, much like the weave of a basket. This is achieved by alternating pairs of blocks laid horizontally and vertically. The result is a checkerboard effect that brings a sense of order and symmetry to the paved area.
The stretcher bond pattern involves laying blocks in horizontal rows, with each row offset by half the length of the block above or below it. This creates a staggered, brick-like appearance. The simplicity of the pattern makes it a classic and universally attractive choice.
In the stack bond pattern, each block is placed exactly in line with the one above and beside it, forming a continuous grid. This pattern does not interlock as strongly as others, which means it is more suitable for areas with lighter foot traffic.
The circular paving pattern is created by laying blocks in a spiral or circular fashion, with each row expanding outward from the centre. This design can be used on its own as a centrepiece in a patio or driveway, or integrated into larger paving schemes as an accent feature.
In a random staggered bond, blocks are laid in rows with staggered joints, similar to a stretcher bond. The lengths of the blocks are staggered vary randomly. This creates a more fluid and less predictable pattern, giving the surface a rustic and relaxed appearance.
