Stunning building in Kew with Ibiza slimline white bricks

Construction has recently finished on this building at Kew in Melbourne. The architects cleverly juxtaposed a very layered lower storey with a striking upper storey. The unique layered look on the brickwork was achieved by offsetting every second course of white slimline bricks by around 10mm. Even though these bricks are extruded, they have a sufficiently fatty front face allowing quite a significant offset. The brick dimensions were 240 mm x 50 mm. The slimmer profile also makes the wall appear softer than you would anticipate in the event that a 76mm gauge was used. You can find out more about the bricks used here.
