Brick is a timeless building material known for its durability and aesthetic appeal. However, one often overlooked factor that significantly impacts the look of brick in both interior and exterior applications is lighting. Natural and artificial lighting can alter the color perception, texture, and overall ambiance of brick surfaces.

The video Brick Stands for Good by the Brick Industry Association highlights the enduring benefits of brick as a building material. It showcases how brick contributes to sustainability, durability, and aesthetic appeal while supporting local economies and communities. Through expert insights and real-world examples, the video reinforces why brick remains a trusted choice for architects, builders, and homeowners alike.

For over a century, Glen-Gery molded brick has elevated architecture both great and small. With unprecedented ease and brilliance, this brick showcases our commitment to implementing new technology while honoring artisanal methods of the past.

At our Materiality Book launch last Spring (request a complimentary copy!), architects were introduced to our inaugural Architect Shape Collaboration Program, inviting them to submit their own custom brick shapes for consideration into our Collab Program. Glen-Gery's Inaugural Architects Collaboration Program invited architects, designers and students to submit original designs for custom brick shapes, offering winners the opportunity to become honorary members of Glen-Gery’s Research & Development Team.
