This brick house design has been created by architect Peter Besley in Australia with a slightly unusual finishing touch that helps to enhance the look and feel of the dwelling.
The home features a flat facade that has been achieved with bricks with too much mortar between them, which has forced it to overflow upon laying. This helps to create a varied finish that is further enhanced with a series of descending layers that lead towards the entrance to catch the light at different times of the day in different ways for enhanced visual appeal.
The brick house design puts a focus on satisfying texture and identifies what can be done to enhance modern homes to give them further visual interest.
