Michael Borromeo's Bricks As Image

Baulkham Hills Shire Council















Stretcher bond, Raked jointing, Orange in colour, could be structural but cannot tell. The most interesting part is the cylindrical form achieved from the brickwork.



Castle Hill Public School














Flemish bond, Raked jointing, Vaulted arches above window acting as a structural beam. Different coloured red bricks used on vaulted arches.




Wesley College, Sydney Uni















English bond, Raked jointing, Smooth brick texture, appear to be load bearing bricks as the corners protrude and look like columns, looks like double brick walls.
