Brick
Brick as a structural and aesthetic material in contemporary architecture and design.
Brick remains a fundamental building material in architecture, valued for its thermal properties, durability, and visual character. Designers continue to explore brick's potential across residential, commercial, and mixed-use projects.The community examines brick through various approaches: stacked tower typologies for density, perforated brick screens for climate control and visual privacy, and layered brick systems combined with local materials like laterite. Projects range from urban offices in Kigali to residential interventions in Ahmedabad, Mangaluru, and Vietnam, demonstrating brick's versatility across geographies and building types.
