LoginA seamless stone texture with basalt arranged in a ashlar pattern. The image represents a physical area of 1694 x 1163 mm (66.7 x 45.8 inches) in total, with each individual block measuring approximately 600 x 200 mm. The joints are filled with mortar and are 5 mm (0.2 inches) in width.
Basalt is a distinctive, dark natural stone used commonly within architecture and construction. While historically used as a crushed aggregate material in roads, concrete, and railways, basalt has also become popular as a slab or panel of choice in the construction of buildings, due to its fine grain and dark complexion. Basalt is therefore commonly used in cladding for external facades, or in a polished form for floor tiles, surfaces, or monuments.
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.
