Brick Wall Tiling

What this grid is

A Brick Wall Tiling is a repeating “mortar line” lattice that outlines rectangular bricks. It supports classic running bond (staggered joints) as well as stack bond (no offset). Use it as a clean, editable vector underlay for architectural textures and layouts.

Key parameters

• Orientation — Horizontal courses (rows) or vertical courses (columns).
• Columns / Rows — Overall extent of the wall in bricks.
• Brick Length / Brick Height (px) — Brick dimensions. These also control the final output size.
• Stagger (%) — Offset between adjacent rows/columns as a percentage of Brick Length.
• Line Width (px) — Stroke thickness for mortar lines.
• Opacity (%) — Visual strength. Lower opacity works well for subtle backgrounds.
• Line Color — Choose contrast against your design.

Unique highlights

• Pure line geometry (no fills). Easy to restyle in Illustrator, Figma, or Inkscape.
• Stagger control supports many looks: stack bond (0%), running bond (50%), and custom offsets.
• Orientation switch lets you build horizontal or vertical brick courses from the same control set.
• Predictable, grid-like structure that remains crisp at any scale in SVG.

Typical use cases

• Architectural textures and wall diagrams.
• Background structure behind typography.
• Pattern fills for posters, packaging, and UI mockups.
• Guides for isometric / perspective drawing overlays.
• Decorative frames and panels.

Tips

• For a traditional brick wall, start with Stagger = 50%.
• For a more “modern” look, try Stagger = 0% (stack bond) and reduce opacity.
• If the pattern feels too dense, increase Brick Length/Height before increasing line width.
• If you hit limits, reduce Columns/Rows first.
