Credit to @evolutionbuildinggroup MAKING OLD BRICKS GREAT AGAIN 🧱
The legends @thebrickpit are on a mission to rescue bricks for reuse. Instead of bricks being crushed as a demolition waste, the bricks are sorted, cleaned and graded for return as reused bricks in commercial, residential and landscaping projects.
Many of our clients have chosen to incorporate these recycled bricks into their new homes and they always look fantastic!

Credit to @erinabricklaying Showroom display wall down at the @thebrickpit  showcasing the 3 most common finishes to brick work, using timeless recycled bricks. 
1. jointed - using a round iron jointer to partially press between the bricks forming a rounded imbeded joint. 
2. raked - scraping further into the mud joint, creating a deeper, more defined "raked" line between the bricks.
3. flush - cutting off the mud as you lay the bricks, then sponging it over once dry, creating a "flush" surface. 
Which finish do you prefer?

We had a little fun with this project. Our design team got involved to make a clean and simple statement that appeals to a wider range of tastes. The brief was to create a blank canvas for someone to come along and add their own style. Our fave feature on the facades is that @thebrickpit recycled brick, which we wanted to showcase by keeping everything else bright and simple around it. What's your fave feature?

Absolutely adore this proposed homestead situated on rural farmland in my hometown of Jamberoo. 
Design inspiration for this home was from ‘The Man from Snowy River’, watched the film, listened to the score , immersed myself into the feelings of farm life; my clients have horses. Timber french doors have been used liberally throughout so you can enter key rooms from any part of the property. My favourite space is the ‘Tack room’ which has a roaring fireplace and will be the gathering room for family and friends. 
We have a living wing and a bedroom wing, both receive generous helpings of northern sunshine , with continuous verandahs and courtyards connecting each space. Dual fireplaces that bookmark East to West . This home is all about connection to the land, living in a peaceful tranquil environment.

Credit to @dorsetbottega The sound and movement of water that a fountain brings create an ambience that’s unmatched. It provides both soothing sounds and reflective beauty while also enticing bird life, adding a sense of peace and natural charm to your outdoor space. A fountain can serve as a striking centrepiece or be placed in a hidden corner to create a more personal and intimate setting. We construct fountains using a variety of materials, sourcing bespoke iron and marble features from around Australia. ⛲💧 #europe #waterfountain #fountain #antiques #antiqueshop #Thebrickpit❤️‍🔥##recyclebrick#upcycledbricks

From vision to reality in just 14 months! When this family approached us, they wanted a seamless journey to their forever home. We were thrilled to take the lead—from organising local designers to collaborate with, to managing every aspect of construction.
By listening to their needs and keeping a close eye on their budget and wishlist, we helped them achieve their dream home. 
Living in their new home today, they’re enjoying the space that was custom-crafted just for them. Proud to be a part of this incredible milestone!

Byron BOURKE @byronbourke 
‘Scripted Clay’ is an installation work that incorporates reclaimed bricks from The Brick Pit Sydney as well as several other historic buildings and sites. Connecting to the past, while promoting future sustainability, the project stands as a reference for both material and process. The work pays homage to a fragment of Sydney’s architectural heritage with an array of hovering AR data clouds linking the tangible to the semi-virtual. Though its example is specific to a perspective of culture, ‘Scripted Clay’ serves to exhibit a precedent for the application of encoding ‘the augmented digital layer’ in architecture more broadly. The display invites further speculation and discourse regarding embedded information within constructed assemblies, architecture and landscape.

Credit to @dorsetbottega The project scope was to re imagine the look and practicality of the garage, motor court and the front door and entry to the house. The garage was extended, more storage space added along with an internal door to give access to the house. A new garage door was designed and installed to reflect the new elements to make the facade more appealing. The garage floor was re furbished in a 2 pac finish and new lights were installed. The original door design was very generic and plain so after discussing some alternatives with our clients we set on this lovely design that also let a lot more natural light through. We decided to make the entry stairs more grand by widening and building them out of recycled bricks.
On the inside we also modified the hallway so access to the garage was available from inside the house.
Motor court, driveway, front fence and gates- The original fence was removed and replaced with some recycled brick sections, custom powder coated Aluminium gates, lights, intercom and camera. The entire motor court and driveway was paved in the same gorgeous recycled brick.

When working with our clients we ensure that there is something unique and completely custom to them that is sure to take their visitors breath away! 
For our Boolaroo project, that was including recycled bricks to the open living & hallway. 🧱 @thebrickpit
