    I will be paving my back yard about 4500 mm ft by 6700 mm ft , with a bit of space to spare.

    I will be using paving slabs in 3 sizes


    300mm x 600 mm
    600mm x600 mm
    900mm x 600mm

    I already checked paving expert.

    I am looking for patterns , for paving slabs with these sizes,

    or a paving generator

    thanks

    The best way to plan paving of different sizes is to get some graph paper and draw to scale the area you want to pave. Then you can order the correct amount of each size reducing waste and cost.

    I am looking for actual design patterns ,and ideas so they are not laid randomly,

    or a paving generator/calculator that does the 3 sizes I have

    thx

    Have you tried the product selector on the Roadstone website? I think it works well, see

    Think they're selected by default.

    Would you not use square slabs in an 8x8 pattern, alternating colours?

    Then use the extra space for seats, clocks, taken pieces and so on.

    Is it for yourself you're doing this job or someone else? Can't see why you're so adamant on the three sizes.
    I put Down my own patio using those sizes 8 years ago, used 2 different colours. I'll post up a picture when I'm off the phone.

    I've about 150m2 in those exact same sizes with a couple of 300mm x 300mm as fillers. A couple of images below which might help with setting a pattern
