Whether you’re creating a concrete patio or walkway outside or looking for flooring options inside the home, stamped concrete is a beautiful and unique way to spruce up the space. Instead of the traditional flat surface of concrete, you can enjoy textures and patterns that are unique and attractive; they also create a textured walking surface to prevent slips and falls. Here are just a few of the many patterns you can impress in your concrete floor.

A Guide to Stamped Concrete Patterns

1. Cobblestone

For the aesthetics of a stone floor without all the work of laying the stone, choose this concrete stamp. You can select a repeating pattern of rectangular stones or a pattern with varying shapes.

2. Herringbone

Brick stamps are effective for the same reason, and they are one of the most popular options is a herringbone pattern — where the bricks create zigzag rows. Combine this with colored concrete to create a surface almost indistinguishable from real bricks.

3. Basket Weave

Similarly, a basket weave stamp replicates a pattern of bricks placed two by two in alternating directions, creating a woven or checkerboard look. This stamp comes in multiple sizes and textures.

4. Slate-Style

This type of pattern shares a lot in common with the cobblestone style, but instead of using small stones, it creates large, flat pavers. Combine this stamp with marbled concrete colors to recreate the look of real stone.

5. Stone Texture

If you prefer a texture that reaches across a whole concrete surface without dividing it into individual bricks, select a stone texture. These can be combined with a border or simply reach edge to edge across your drive or walkway.
