TRICKS WITH BRICKS

HAVE FUN WITH LAYOUT

Why settle on one pattern when you can have more? Mixing different brick layouts (such as the basket weave and herringbone patterns here) will add interest and dimension to any pathway. “Other patterns that work well together include square and half-bond patterns, with cement grouting in an 8 to 10mm grout gap,” says Melanie van Staden of Revelstone.

PERFECT PLANTERS

Bricks make for perfect planters. Choose bricks that have large holes and include plants that don’t have large roots and will survive in small nooks such as some grasses and moss. Use this as a feature where there is not too much foot traffic.
