Design Trend: Exposed Brick

October 16, 2017

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!

In this kitchen with an all white foundation, the wall of white brick adds interest, without distracting from the simplicity of the space.

Here a painted brick wall serves as a substitute for a backsplash, while drawing the eye to the beautiful range.

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

This charming exposed brick, creates a cozy cooking space with a cottage feel.

 

 

Beginning in the Middle

Exposed brick works beautifully mixed with modern elements, like a clean white subway tile in a kitchen.

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

In this entry the white-washed brick serves a backdrop for succulent wall art. Texture on Texture done to perfection!

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.

 

Amber Interiors

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!

 

 

Addison’s Wonderland

If you have a space with original brick, consider working your design around it, as seen in this rich and feminine bedroom.

Another great example of painted, exposed brick creating variety in an all white design. I love white and love that you can mix textures while still keeping the design clean and minimal.

    I’m thinking of installing a brick veneer on my mud room walls. Then the plan is to paint it white. Can you advice me what finish of paint I should use? Flat, semi-gloss, what? I’m confused.
    Thanks!
