A seamless metal texture with corten steel b arranged in a basketweave pattern. The image represents a physical area of 1220 x 1220 mm (48 x 48 inches) in total, with each individual sheet measuring approximately 300 x 100 mm. The joints are filled with mortar and are 5 mm (0.2 inches) in width.

Corten steel is a popular steel subset within architecture and construction, formed by natural discolourations in the metal over time. The industrial vibe of Corten steel, with hues of rusty orange, silver grey, and burnt reds, can form an attractive finish for building facades, cladding, and decorative landscape pieces. Corten steel is also unique from other metals due to the varied textures and patterns emerging on its surface, including etching, scratches, blotches, and stains, all adding to the unique natural, industrial atmosphere evoked by the material.

This texture uses a basketweave pattern. The pattern contains groups of tiles which form a square. Each alternating group is rotated at 90 degrees from the last creating the appearance of the tiles passing above and below each other. The pattern takes its name for its resemblance to the strands of a weave which are intertwined in the same way. The number of 'weaves' in the pattern can be adjusted to make the pattern a double basketweave, triple basketweave and so on.

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.
