Application of brick in interior architecture
Brick is one of the materials that create a natural feeling in the interior. Due to its diverse color from dark red to pale yellow, brick can create different looks with different feelings in interior design.

Unlike many materials that require an external coating or a layer of coating for their final look, brick is one of the materials that can be used in the interior without any final coating.
Today, in the design or renovation of interior spaces, the face of damaged bricks is either painted or left untouched.
Brick cladding can be used to emphasize a wall or create a focal point.
By using bricks in a very modern space, we can bring a nostalgic or rustic feeling to the space.
Architects today thought of designing different brick patterns to revive brick in buildings. These patterns are arranged regularly and irregularly, which has turned brick from a traditional material to a new material. The brick facade allows the designer to create thousands of new and unique ideas by significantly reducing the weight of the design shell.
Bricks can be created by protruding or rotating at different angles, or in the simplest case, using facing bricks in different thicknesses so that this level difference causes shading at different hours of the day and gives a special effect to the facade of the building.
If you are building a house, villa or changing the interior decoration of your home, brick is one of the best options to make your home’s architecture and decoration different and attractive.
