MotifGrass grid, diamond voids pattern — free hatch (.pat), texture & 3D tiles
Grass grid, diamond voids is a stone layout built from 1 tile per repeat (sizes 600 × 400 mm), repeating on the lattice a = (600, 0) mm, b = (0, 400) mm, a cell of 240000 mm². The seamless texture repeat is 600 × 400 mm. Download it as a CAD hatch, a seamless texture or SVG and DXF lines, count the tiles for your room, or build it as real 3D tiles in SketchUp. All free.

Enter the room, grout and tile size. The count comes from the same engine that lays the 3D tiles, so the cut tiles are real cuts against your room edges (a 4 × 3 m room is shown first). More patterns: tile calculator.

Questions about Grass grid, diamond voids
How many Grass grid, diamond voids tiles do I need for a 4 × 3 m room?
With the default tile size and a 3 mm joint, a 4 × 3 m floor needs 42 full tiles and 14 cut tiles (56 whole tiles counting each cut tile as one). The net area is 7.67 m² and the tiles bought cover 8.58 m², so cutting alone wastes 12 %. Enter your own room and tile size in the calculator on this page.
Is the Grass grid, diamond voids hatch exact?
Yes. The .pat file draws the tile edges exactly: every edge direction of this pattern is parallel to a lattice vector, so a PAT line family reproduces it without approximation. Units are millimetres and the pattern name inside the file is grass-grid-diamond.
How do I use the .pat file in AutoCAD?
Copy the .pat file into a folder that is in AutoCAD's Support File Search Path (Options > Files), keep the file name (the pattern name inside the file matches it), then pick the pattern in the HATCH command. If Windows blocks the download, right-click the file, open Properties and tick Unblock.
How do I use the .pat file in Revit?
In Revit open Manage > Additional Settings > Fill Patterns, click New, choose Custom and browse to the .pat file. Use the model variant when the pattern must keep its real size on the building.
What is the repeat size of Grass grid, diamond voids?
One repeat of the lattice covers 240000 mm² with 1 tile. The smallest rectangle that repeats seamlessly in both directions, which is what a texture image needs, is 600 × 400 mm at the default sizes.
