Brick With a New Twist

Brick is a popular material for exteriors of homes, and it can even be seen in some trendy lofts in downtown Atlanta. A normal place that brick is seen inside a home is around the fireplace, adding a cozy feeling and a virtually maintenance-free background. But brick interior walls in other areas of Atlanta new homes are beginning to emerge as a growing trend. This warm, textural material can enhance the look of any room and make it warmer and cozier. Brick interior walls are now a sleek and modern home design trend that can help transform a room into the elegant showcase you want it to be.

Here are some new homebuilders who have utilized brick interior walls into homes throughout metro Atlanta.

Monte Hewett Homes used brick in the townhome model of their Heatherton community to introduce warmth in a basement space. A brick wall in the terrace level billiard room defines the atmosphere and makes it comfortable for play. In the daylight basement in Stonehaven at Vinings, Monte Hewett Homes chose stone instead of brick. In this case, the wall mimics the stone fireplace in the adjacent room, and it gives a finished look to a windowless wall. In other places, Monte Hewett Homes has been known to use brick in the breakfast area, for a true Tuscan feel.

Haven Properties utilizes brick in the wine cellar in their model home in Harmony on the Lakes, a Cherokee County TownPark community. The cellar entry is disguised by bookcases. An impressive mixture of brick walls and built-in storage within the cellar make it the envy of any wine connoisseur.
