6" × 8" × 12" Brick

The workhorse of the range. Six inches of bed depth carries load-bearing partitions and boundary walls where a full eight-inch section is more than the span asks for.

    Riverside Boundary Wall

    A riverside walkway, held by a single unbroken run of brick. The eight-inch section takes the retaining courses at the water's edge; six-inch carries the rest, squared off into piers at every lamp standard.

    Meadow Lane Residences

    Two homes under one roofline, meeting at a shared party wall. Four-inch partition brick keeps the internal walls thin across both plans; six-inch carries the wall between them.

    Homestead Well Lining

    A household well lined from the collar down in the curved brick. Cast on the arc, the radial joints close as they are laid — the ring stays true, and nothing is cut on site.

    Hill Road Frontage

    A hill road given a footpath, raised on retaining walls that step down with the gradient. The eight-inch section holds the bank; the small 2×4×8 unit closes the returns and faces the shelter at the turning.
