A retaining wall system is comprised of a plurality of courses of side-by-side parallelogram front face patterns, each parallelogram front face pattern formed by first and second rows of a plurality of quadrilateral face patterns. The first and second rows of the plurality of quadrilateral face patterns have the same width and collectively define a height of the parallelogram front face pattern, with each of the parallelogram front face patterns having the same height. The quadrilateral face patterns in the first row have a width different than that of the quadrilateral face patterns in the second row. Each parallelogram front face pattern in a first course overlies two parallelogram front face patterns in an immediately adjacent course. The combination of off-sets of the quadrilateral face patterns in each parallelogram front face pattern and overlapping of parallelogram face patterns in adjacent courses creates a retaining wall having a non-uniform appearance of a natural stone wall.
A retaining wall structure comprising selected members of a set of interchangeable block modules of generally similar height and length arranged side-by-side and in successive courses, each member of the set having a different quadrilateral face pattern with four straight sides, each interchangeable module comprising a first row of a plurality of masonry blocks, the first row having a width, and a second row of a plurality of masonry blocks, the second row having a width generally equal to the width of the first row.
