Product Review - Ibstock Brick Ltd
Bespoke Roman brick - Ibstock Brick Ltd
Among the many design features that helped Paternoster House in the City of London win the BDA Brick Award for 2004 for Best Commercial Building is the use of Ibstock's Swanage brick in a purpose made size and blend of colours. The Swanage brick was selected because it resembled the original Roman bricks found extensively in the foundations of the buildings around this area. Ibstock also imitated the Roman dimensions of the originals, producing a brick that is 46mm high. This brick was combined with a 15mm mortar jointing and an unusual bond patter to create a distinctive texture to the main elevations.
