Design Trend: Exposed Brick

One of my favorite trends right now in interior design is exposed brick. I’m seeing it more and more, and I’m loving what I’m seeing. It’s often used as an accent in a space to add texture and interest. Exposed brick adds a lot character to a room. Whether it’s painted or left untouched, it creates variety from simple painted walls. The tumbled look of brick gives dimension to a room without the need to over decorate. It also brings a mixed feeling of old and new together in more modern spaces. Today, I’m sharing examples where exposed brick is used beautifully. Maybe one will be the perfect inspiration for an upcoming project. Enjoy!

Consider exposed brick instead of an exposed wood for a supportive beam in a room.

I love how this entry has too facing walls with different styles – clean and minimal vs. textured and rustic. They pair perfectly.

I love this combo of  light natural wood and painted brick. Noticed all the mix of grains in the woods, yet it all blends so well.

Painted brick works well as a frame for a bed wall. Nothing else is needed to finish the wall. The exposed brick is all the styling that is needed – art optional!
