Brick walls have been around for a long time and were a common sight especially in older homes or buildings. When drywalls, pre-fabricated walls and building blocks weren’t invented yet, the old’ brick wall was a necessity. Nowadays, you can still see them in older buildings, as well as buildings that want to retain that old world look. Oftentimes, you can also see bricks being used as a decorative & aesthetic element in interiors, adding a sort of rough and rugged appeal to space.
Bricks are one of the materials that have proven their timelessness. Not only do they look good, but they are also sturdy, which is why older buildings still have their original brick masonry intact! No matter what the style of the color scheme of your space, a brick wall will surely be a great additional feature.
If you have a modern space that mainly uses white or any light colours for the walls and furniture, a red brick wall is an excellent choice to add contrast and texture to space. The example above uses the home’s original vintage bricks to give it rough, imperfect edges and create visual interest.
