As a go-to material for buildings for thousands of years, brick has a sense of tradition. But it is also a popular choice for contemporary architects looking for strength, variety, and sustainability. Folio features the most exciting new brick buildings in America, from brickwork emulating computer code in Rochester, to contemporary brick forms nodding to historic neighbours in Louisville, to rounded bricks creating a sculptural facade in New York. The book features work by some of today's most inspiring design firms: nARCHITECTS, Michael Maltzan Architecture, ODA New York, Kennedy & Violich Architecture, Modus Studio, de Leon & Primmer Architecture Workshop, Bohlin Cywinski Jackson, Cunningham | Quill Architects, Studio B, and Morris Adjmi Architects. From a single-family house in Denver to a massive office complex in Los Angeles, each project tells a unique story of how brick can be the foundation of the most creative design.
