If you've got it, flaunt it...if you haven't, fake it!!

Exposed brick is pretty hot in the interior at the moment so if you've got it, flaunt it!

Exposed bricks add a pleasing and familiar sense of rhythm to a space. Coming from the earth brick is the oldest of all man-made materials and was first used over 6,000 years ago. Whilst it is associated with tradition and convention rather than cutting edge, brick, with its warm colour and non uniform texture, can provide a welcome contrast in a clean line, minimalist design and is increasingly being used in contemporary interiors.


However if you simply don't have the brick to expose you can now fake it with a range of treatments available today to suit most budgets.



This very realistic brick wall is actually just covered with Attic 1 wallpaper from Concrete Wall, £94 per square meter.






Brewers also stock an "unfinished brick" wallpaper at £36.95 for a 10 meter roll.

Let Transformations Interior Designs make the most of the brick in your interior...or at least help you fake it like a pro!
