A seamless stone texture with andesite porphyry arranged in a stretcher pattern. The image represents a physical area of 1220 x 1220 mm (48 x 48 inches) in total, with each individual block measuring approximately 300 x 300 mm. The joints are filled with rough concrete and are 5 mm (0.2 inches) in width.

Andesite porphyry is a rock, typically light or dark grey in colour, used within the architecture and construction industry. A fine-grained rock, andesite porphyry features large crystals embedded within the stone, making it a popular finishing material. Andesite porphyry is frequently used as a floor tile due to its slip resistance, as well as a cladding material for walls and roof tiles. The rock also features in interior decoration, kitchen surfaces, and externally in cobblestones, curbing, and as an aggregate.

This texture uses a running pattern also known as a stretcher bond. The stretcher bond is one of the most common bonds used in masonry construction and uses stretchers, bricks laid flat with their long edge parallel to the wall. Each alternating course is offset by a half stretcher.

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.
