Copper Ashlar

A seamless metal texture with copper arranged in a ashlar pattern. The image represents a physical area of 3790 x 2426 mm (149.2 x 95.5 inches) in total, with each individual sheet measuring approximately 1200 x 200 mm. The joints are filled with mortar and are 2 mm (0.1 inches) in width.

Copper is one of the most popular metals within the architecture and construction industry, dating back thousands of years to ancient Egypt. Copper’s durability, resistance to corrosion, and versatility make it a material of choice for building facades and cladding, while its polished, rich, and varied hues lend itself to use for internal details, furniture, or surfaces. Copper can be treated with brushed, polished, etched, or stained finishes, and varies in colour between browns, mahoganies, ebonies, and greens.

This texture uses a random coursed ashlar pattern, where the height of each row and the width of each block varies. Coursed ashlar is found on many historical stone facades as well as in contemporary stonemasonry.

This image is seamless, meaning it can be tiled repeatedly for use in architectural drawings and 3D models. It can be used as a SketchUp texture, Revit material or imported into Photoshop for use in 2D illustrations.
