A classic brick facade can speak to the history of a building and the hands that carefully laid down each piece. From ancient Egypt to the Middle Ages, brick has been used as building material, stacking its way through history. It wasn’t until the 1960s and 70s that we saw a return to an appreciation for the craftsmanship—this time, indoors. This week we’re following Dorothy down the yellow brick road, or in our case, the exposed brick road, to this week's curated list by Brown Harris Stevens.
