This paving pattern is the most popular in industry, hence it’s name. It is an easy to follow the pattern with the middle of each brick being starting point of the paving block/brick in the next row. It is a popular choice for walkways, entertainment areas and driveways. The popular choice of material for walkways and entertainment areas as well as around a pool include stepping stones, full/half/quarter blocks as well as bevelled and interlocker bricks. The Common Bond is very durable and can support significant weight crossing it. For driveways the typical smaller blocks like the interlocker and bevelled bricks as well as cobble rock, cobble squares and quarter blocks are popular choices.

Herringbone

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text ol_position=”outside” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”2e1ca0a8-a515-4ca3-8814-65eea4b82393″ text_font=”||||||||” text_text_color=”#666666″ text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”1.8em” link_font=”|700|||||||” link_text_color=”#71B100″ custom_padding=”||||false|false” text_font_size_tablet=”15px” text_font_size_phone=”14px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]

The paving blocks/bricks are laid in an alternating v-shape pattern at 900 to each other. The Herringbone pattern lends itself to be a stable and durable paving. The Herringbone pattern is a very popular choice for driveways, walkways, patios as well as forecourts, commercial and industrial parking areas and creates a strong visual impact. While the pattern requires a bit more time for laying due to the need to cut it in at the edges, the visual impact makes it well worth your effort. Materials used in this pattern includes cobble rock, bevel bricks and interlocking bricks.

Circle paving patterns is popular in domestic, parks and landscaping applications. It lends itself to a lot of creativity and is popular for entertainment areas, bomas and public spaces. This paving pattern can be used to create specific focus areas using full or partial circles. Using interchanging colours really brings the patterns to life and helps to create a definitive creative atmosphere. Stone Sensation’s custom manufactured circles coming in five different size options are really aesthetically pleasing. Laying this paving pattern using normal paving material requires some extra planning and skill and is more time consuming than having straight lines. Using products like cobbles, cobble rock or quarter blocks eases the challenge of laying. To really draw attention, the use of varying circle sizes and interchanging colours can be considered.

Employing different patterns in combination creates eye-catching surfaces while also defining specific areas. One can for example have a circle paving where you intend to put a round table with the surrounding area being a Herringbone or Common Bond pattern. Finishing off larger areas of paving with a different pattern around the edge complements the overall appearance while one can also divide large areas into blocks by using a different pattern. The different size paving blocks manufactured by Stone Sensation are frequently used in combination to create very nice and appealing areas.
