Shingles are a type of cladding material used for the exterior walls of buildings. They are typically made from wood, but can also be made from other materials such as fiber cement or metal. Façade shingles are designed to be durable and weather-resistant, and they are installed in a way that allows them to overlap and create a continuous protective layer over the building's exterior.

Façade shingles can be installed in a variety of patterns and styles, such as horizontal, vertical, or diagonal, depending on the design preferences of the architect or builder. They can also be painted or stained in a variety of colors to complement the building's overall aesthetic.

To install a pattern library in Adobe Illustrator, you can follow these steps:

Window menu > Swatches > In swatches window: Click top right corner button >
Open Swatch Library > Other Library... > Choose the file you've downloaded > 
Click Open (Hatches will appear in a separate window)

 

Here is a little bit more detailed way:

  1. Download the pattern library file in a compatible format, such as AI, EPS, or SVG.

  2. Open Adobe Illustrator and create a new document or open an existing one.

  3. Go to the "Swatches" panel, which can be found under the "Window" menu.

  4. Click on the "Swatch Libraries" icon at the bottom of the panel and select "Other Library" from the dropdown menu.

  5. Navigate to the location where you saved the pattern library file and select it.

  6. The pattern library will then appear in the "Swatches" panel as a new swatch group.

  7. To use a pattern from the library, simply select the object you want to fill, click on the pattern swatch you want to use, and the object will be filled with that pattern.

Want to resize your pattern in Illustrator? That's the way to do it: 

  1. Open your document in Adobe Illustrator and select the object or shape that has the pattern applied to it.

  2. In the top menu, go to "Object" and then select "Transform" and "Scale" from the dropdown menu. Alternatively, you can use the shortcut key "S" to access the Scale tool.

  3. The Scale dialog box will appear, showing options to adjust the scaling of the selected object.

  4. To maintain the pattern's proportions while resizing, make sure the "Uniform" option is selected. If you want to adjust the width and height independently, you can uncheck the "Uniform" option.

  5. Enter the desired percentage or value in the "Scale" fields. Increasing the value will make the pattern larger, while decreasing it will make it smaller.

  6. You can also use the reference point locator to specify the anchor point for scaling. By default, it is set to the center. You can click on any of the nine reference points to choose a different anchor point.

  7. Preview the changes in real-time by checking the "Preview" box in the Scale dialog box.

  8. Once you are satisfied with the desired size, click the "OK" button to apply the changes.
