Inspiration for a large timeless brick back porch remodel in Atlanta with a roof extension

Completed in 2018, the main idea for The Brick-Up House is to use and highlight a material that captures our clients' passion for collecting Lego toys and clay jars. Our team decided to use clay bricks as the main element for the project to create an interesting play of texture and introduce personality in this modest home. The façade of the house provides privacy for the family while giving passers-by hints and sneak peeks of what's inside the home. Combined with a basic, split level floor plan that can accommodate our clients' immediate and extended family, The Brick-Up House is a design exercise that allowed our team to explore a material that's relatively uncommon in simple residential projects these days.
