Patterned Concrete Planting Blocks...Design

After playing around in Photoshop, this was the first pattern we came up with. However, we decided that it was a little to static, and didn't seem to flow across a large face as much as we would have liked. But, we decided to plug it into AutoCAD anyway and see how we could tweak it.

This wasn't really working for us, and after a while we just felt like we were butting our heads against a wall with this design, so Vivian and Karim decided to try and work up a new pattern, based on our previously agreed-upon design principles (overlapping grids and a dynamic pattern).
