We love how designer Amy Morris used it in this hallway. The mix of wood creates an interesting pattern. ( Photo, Amy Dines) |

Randy Powers designed this charming breakfast nook. |
( Designed by Andrew Brown, photo by Keven Spearman) It also works in a contemporary design. We like how the brick is white washed. It gives it a lighter feel. |
I've always loved the look of brick and stone in homes. As traditional design is once again en vogue, I'm expecting to see an increase in brick and stone in interior applications. They add character and provide a sense of history that many of today's homeowners are searching for.
ReplyDeleteGreat post, ladies!
These photos are so beautiful
ReplyDeleteI love exposed brick - I wouldn't like a house full of it, but an accent wall here and there is beautiful and I love the floors you've shown. I think it lends an organic and natural feel to an interior which is why it is becoming more popular. Beautiful images. x Sharon
ReplyDeleteI love exposed antique brick and yes I think we'll see more brick. Brick is an inexpensive alternative to stone and looks great. It's easy to keep clean and you get that white washed look by giving brick an acid bath. An acid bath is also the only way to really clean brick but don't worry it's safe. Wonderful post ladies and I've tried linky three times and they never send me a link to follow like they say.

I LOVE BRICK! And this images tell why!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to see Mona and her sister's work her. Aren't they fabulous
If I ever build another house, the kitchen will have brick and more brick! It adds so much character to these rooms. Amy Morris used brick perfectly in this homes. One of my favorite homes yet.
Happy Monday.

I have always loved the warm character brick gives to the interior of a home, on the floors or walls, it gives a room such personality. Love the examples you gave.......beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful examples. We have a lot of brick on the outside of our new home but none inside...it would make a great addition!
ReplyDeletethe power of a single topic as you have shown here really helps me hone in and study all the uses. particularly loved amy morris.
ReplyDeletei can proudly claim an addiction for brick, especially vintage. my "brick broker", yes, every girl should have one, sources all over the country and i will use it heavily outdoors but also in. you provided some great ideas!
go ahead and knock on the door of the house with the brick risers, they might be pleased to know you and your fans can get a peek!

Love the brick floors. Our last home had some exposed brick in the kitchen - it was a great, textural look!

Love this post! My entire first floor is outdoor brick in a herringbone pattern. I think this was the first thing I knew I wanted to do the second I saw it! I haven't regretted the use of brick for a single minute.. just love them!
ReplyDeleteAlso, why is google friend phasing out? How did you find that out?

Loved The Brady Bunch, love a bit of exposed brick, love Mona and the gorgeous chandelier!! xo
ReplyDeleteI just had a client that has brick floors throughout the first floor. At first I was intimidated, but they are so cool when you get used to them!

I love this post because I am such a lover of brick. We are in the process of a remodel now and I am going to used exposed brick behind my Wolf range. Your post could not of come at a better time!! Isn't that floor that Amy Morris designed incredible?
ReplyDeleteI love the rustic brick along with the rustic woods and fabrics. Brick is one design element you have to SEE in place to realize the impact! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I think brick will always be in vogue. It works with so many different styles of homes, traditional, contemporary, rustic loft, etc. Thanks for sharing such incredible photos! Inspiration!
ReplyDeleteLove the brick used here. These are lovely images.
ReplyDeleteHi sweetie!
ReplyDeleteI love bricks! I was at a restaurant the other day that had brick walls and beams and I couldn't take my eyes off them! I oved the food, but the best of all was the brick walls! :-)
Love this post!

I've been noticing a lot of brick too and have wondered about it. The only drawback I see is that it will fade out like it did with the Brady Bunch! lol But these spaces are gorgeous. I'll take any one of them!
ReplyDeleteI love the earthiness of brick. For an indoor space I do prefer them on a wall or vertical surface like those amazing stair risers - they do add dimension and pattern.
ReplyDeleteSo many beautiful images here. Adore Greet's room - warm and inviting!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post! I'm working on an out-of-state project right now (a new construction farmhouse) and sourcing warm gray brick for the mudroom and back halls--herringbone is the plan. Thanks for more inspiration!! Stop by some time. (I know we never have enough time for blogs, do we? But I do love when I get to yours!)
ReplyDeleteBest,

I've always wanted used brick floors in some part of our home. We have hardwood but I like the idea of maybe a kitchen nook with used brick floor. So pretty.

Thanks so much for including our work, Danni and Julie. We're honored. Just got back to the room. Shopping all day at Round Top to fill a truck. Wish you guys were here. Having a glass of wine with our feet up at the Best Western right now.
ReplyDeleteSince you were so nice to stop by the Treasured Home yesterday, I wanted to stop by your place and say hi!
ReplyDeleteI love (LOVE) brick!!! And I have none in my home. How's that? Not sure, but I love brick! Ageless, timeless, gorgeous!
Fantastic! I adore the use of brick in a home.... especially on the walls.
ReplyDeleteI do love brick and am actually considering it for my hay and kitchen. But then I love the mix of rustic and elegant. Amy Morris' images really resonate with me. Love them.

I am so happy I stumbled upon your blog. Being a designer by background (different field though) needed some good inspiration. Here it is.
ReplyDeleteSo glad the exposed brick look is catching on in the US. At least I can think of it in our next house.
My family always say that I am wasting my time here at net, but I know I am getting experience all the time by reading such pleasant posts.
