Bricks - A Fresh Perspective on Old Materials


Listen Later

Are bricks just bricks. They've been so for thousands of years. First sun-dried mud and now mechanically reproduced clay (and others). But while the brick has not changed in both the world and in our minds, Omar shows his two guests, Ronnie and Matt, how this old building material has seen some unique innovation in its use in architecture. Don't think linear brick walls, think curvy, asymmetrical, wall/ceiling/stairs. The brick, while humble, has been used in some of the most inspiring and limit-pushing buildings in the world. Join this episode of Student Architect where you'll learn just how creative you can get with a common brick.
