Meadow Brick
A rising trend in brick home design is forgoing traditional red brick for subtle earth-tone colored products. In addition, consumers are choosing brick with a rustic, old-world appearance, including tumbled edges and surface imperfections, simulating the handmade product of the past. Hanson Brick has introduced its latest brick style, Meadow Brook, which offers a rich, earthy color, soft edges and a heavily textured face. It's the first brick of this kind to be produced at the company's Michigan plant, the only clay brick plant in the state. For more information, visit www.hansonbrick.com, or call (877) 426-7668.
