Congratulations to the Winning Architects of our Inaugural Architect Shapes Collaboration Contest

This fall, these architects will bring their shapes to life at Glen-Gery's Mid-Atlantic Manufacturing Plant where they will hand mold their custom brick shapes.
Stay tuned for their journey into becoming brick artisans.


	“Trigon Brick” // Brittany Macomber (MA Architects) The Trigon Brick is a modern interpretation of classic brick details found on structural masonry walls. The dimension and depth of the brick provides versatility, allowing the brick to be expressed on its own, or integrated with modular bricks to create unique patterns. View Trigon Brick	“Curve” // Edward Jose (Loci Architecture) A simple elongated curved brick that can be laid in various wall configurations to achieve different surface effects. The curve of the shape allows its thinner profile to reduce material and weight in a typical brick veneer cavity wall assembly, while still maintaining stability. Its convex and concave surfaces can affect sound waves in urban environments with noisy street conditions. View Curve

“Facet Brick” // Justin Bright (Gnome Architects)

Opposite corners of the brick are chamfered to create a diagonal facet on the front face. Depending on the orientation and coursing, this simple unit offers various patterns and textural effects.

“The Weaver” // Colin Rupp (Gnome Architects)

This shape utilizes an alternating bevel, all within a standard size. The mirrored detailing allows for a unique set of weaving textures and plays with solid/void.
