Modernist Architecture
There are few products that can adapt to a vast array of architectural styles, remain cost-effective and meet the ever demanding energy code criteria like Omni Block. The home at left and below is such an example; an Eichler inspired modernist home. Architect Robert Swatt used exposed Omni Block in northern California proving that even in the most stringent structural zones Omni Block is a stand alone wall system that should not be furred, additionally insulated or sheetrocked. It is recommended to plaster the interior of the block with standard sheetrock compound to exactly match any adjoining interior sheetrock. This home was featured in Dwell Magazine.
