Organic Pattern: A naturally evolved street layout with winding paths shaped by land, rivers, and history.

Grid Pattern: A planned layout of straight streets crossing at right angles to form square or rectangular blocks.

Radial Pattern: Streets radiating from a central point like spokes of a wheel, often with ring roads for connection.

Hexagonal Pattern: A honeycomb layout with streets forming hexagon-shaped blocks and 120-degree intersections.

Irregular Pattern: A curving, varied street layout with loops and cul-de-sacs designed for scenic or suburban areas.

Stem Pattern: A tree-like design where main “stems” connect to smaller “branch” streets that often end in cul-de-sacs.

Loose Grid: A flexible grid layout with slight curves, uneven spacing, or breaks for parks and open spaces.

Suburban Pattern: A “loops and lollipops” layout of curving streets and cul-de-sacs branching off a few main roads.

Superblock Pattern: Large blocks combining smaller ones, restricting through-traffic to create pedestrian-friendly centers.
