Patio planner & paver patterns.
Work out what your patio takes — colorway, layout, shape and pieces — then see the six layouts from the Lookbook in full.
Plan it, then order it.
Plan it in three steps: pick a color and a layout, give it the shape of your space, and it works out the pieces. The layouts on offer change with the color, because sizes differ by colorway.
A pattern is really an order sheet.
Each one calls for a set mix of paver sizes, given below as the share of the finished surface each size covers — not the share of the piece count, which is what trips most takeoffs up.
Sizes vary by colorway, so the planner above only offers the layouts your color is actually made in. Browse the colorway pages to see what each one carries.
Running Bond 1
Wide courses broken by a narrower one, each row offset by half a paver. The change of course height keeps a long run from reading as a grid.
Running Bond 1 paver mix Size Ratio Share of area 24″ × 48″ 1 66.7% 12″ × 48″ 1 33.3% 12″ × 48″ is made in Thermal Blue and Natural Variegated only.
Running Bond 2
One size throughout, every course offset by half a paver. The simplest layout to set out and to order, and the one that makes the most of the largest format.
Running Bond 2 paver mix Size Ratio Share of area 24″ × 48″ 1 100% Pattern A
Equal piece counts of three sizes in a shallow band. The lightest of the modular mixes, and the easiest to set out on a narrow terrace or a path.
Pattern A paver mix Size Ratio Share of area 24″ × 24″ 1 57.2% 12″ × 24″ 1 28.5% 12″ × 12″ 1 14.3% Pattern B
A square anchor with a pair of planks and a pair of small squares beside it. Even weighting between the large and medium sizes keeps the surface busy without looking random.
Pattern B paver mix Size Ratio Share of area 24″ × 24″ 1 40% 12″ × 24″ 2 40% 12″ × 12″ 2 20% Pattern C
The largest module of the three-size mixes, with a course of smaller pieces running under the squares. It takes a bigger area to read properly, so it suits an open terrace.
Pattern C paver mix Size Ratio Share of area 24″ × 24″ 2 44.5% 12″ × 24″ 3 33.3% 12″ × 12″ 4 22.2% Pattern D
Built around the largest format, with squares and planks stacked beside it. The strongest of the mixes, and the one that reads most clearly from the house.
Pattern D paver mix Size Ratio Share of area 24″ × 48″ 1 40% 24″ × 24″ 2 40% 12″ × 24″ 2 20%
Herringbone.
Not a mix but a single size — usually 12″ × 24″ — set at 45° or 90°. It takes more cuts at the edges and more labor than a modular mix, so budget for both, but it does something no stacked layout can: it gives a flat surface direction, and it hides small variations in setting out.
The walkway at the top of this page is herringbone. Plan it as a single size above and take the 15% allowance, then talk it through with your installer before you order.
