Here's a description of the project. The brick wall is part of the original industrial building, renovated into a loft.

where do you get the brick splash

about 150 years in the past by the looks of it. awesome project

For those who want a similar look but don't have the luxury of an old loft gone remod, you can contact brick/tile suppliers and tell them you want to brick up an interior wall. They often carry decorative brick veneers. Think of it as shaving a thin layer off a normal brick (except they're usually fabricated this thin), and then tiling the veneers onto a typical interior wall the way you'd for a shower wall.
