Can all types of bricks be mixed with each other?
Texture generator | Texture generator pavers | Texture generatorWe want to show you a realistic mix. This means that not all combinations are possible. When mixing, we take into account the technical specifications, dimensions and surface structures of our products. This ensures that you get a mix that is both aesthetically pleasing and of good quality.

If you generate a texture in our texture generator tool on the website, you will receive a link to download the texture (in .jpeg). You can then upload that texture into your design program. The e-mail you receive will also contain links to technical information (CE sheet, specifications text) on the chosen product.
We will soon be integrating our texture generator with the most common software packages for architects. This will be done via a plug-in. No more searching, downloading or uploading! The first thing on the agenda is an integration with the CAD program Vectorworks. We are doing everything possible to launch this as soon as possible.
The intuitive simplicity of the tool with countless possible textures, combined with high-quality lifelike images. Vandersanden's texture generator uses a specific technology to extract information from photos: photogrammetry. It uses 2D textures with a 3D depth, which makes the textures extremely detailed. The lighting is added digitally. This gives you an extremely uniform and realistic image, which is not dependent on external variables.
We 'scan' a huge number of products by hue. This combined with the digital mirroring of each side produces a very natural image. Recurring patterns are virtually impossible. Furthermore, the texture generator allows you to play with mortar joints and joint thicknesses. In the case of facing bricks, even leaving perpend joints unbuttered with mortar is an option.
You will receive the following documents:
- The texture (jpg)
- A zip file with all the other types of textures (alpha, occlusion, normal and diffuse), pdf sheets, a meta file (json) and a documentation file
- A link to reopen your configuration
You can play with mortar joints, joint thicknesses and finishes. But also mix 2, 3 or even 4 colours with each other. This way you are always sure that the mix is feasible in practice.
No. You indicate the mix ratio of your dream texture to the building merchant. He/she will then place the order. The mixing is done afterwards on site by the builder.
We strive to provide the best possible realistic image. However, it is a digital image, which can differ from reality. Facing bricks, blick slips and clay pavers are also ceramic products. This means that slight colour differences can occur between different bricks.
