4 Brick Trends Transforming Australian Homes in 2025
01
Low-Peaked Brick Slip Roofing
Adding a low-peaked brick slip roof has become an increasingly popular way to enhance the value of your home. Given the ever-changing weather conditions in Australia, a low-peaked brick slip roof can withstand even the harshest elements, including floods, cyclones and hail. Brick slip roofs also significantly improve energy efficiency with a high thermal mass, making them excellent winter insulators.
Located in Box Hill, Victoria, Naples Street by Edition Office showcases the use of low peaked brick slip roofing. The extensive use of brick across the walls and roof creates a cohesive sense of stature for the homes. Unlike the standard brick townhome designs throughout the area, this project features a distinctive two-peaked brick-slip roofing style. This approach not only provides structural security but also enhances the longevity of the homes, thanks to the durability of Bowral Bricks in Simmental Silver. With their impressive tactile aesthetic, Bowral Bricks are highly acclaimed by customers, architects, and designers alike, as they set the standard for innovation in design.
02
Internal Brick Flooring
Internal brick flooring is gaining popularity among homeowners determined to combat wear and tear. Bricks serve as a stable and long-lasting material, especially when compared to other building materials.
Located in Brisbane’s inner west suburb of Milton, High Street by Lineburg Wang focuses on durability and convenience through internal brick flooring. Utilising Bowral Bricks in St Paul’s Cream, High Street features a durable, well-designed solution to high foot traffic and damage. The addition of Bowral Bricks also creates a clean aesthetic that seamlessly blends into the pre-existing design.

Protruding Brickwork
In 2025, protruding brickwork will frequently be used to upgrade the exterior of the home. Exposed brickwork introduces a rich texture and inherent durability that can refine and elevate even the simplest of designs.
Carter Williamson’s renovation of Wurrungwuri features intricate brickwork along its double-height walls to emulate the sandstone of the original building. Bowral Bricks in Chillingham White plays to the texture of the time whilst bringing it into the 21st century with its contemporary style.

Contrasting Brick Shades
Using techniques such as natural iron oxidation and manufactured colour changes, homeowners choose to customise, mix, and match bricks within their homes. By incorporating different shades of brick, the visual interest of any facade can be significantly enhanced.
Mygunyah by The Circus cleverly incorporates an array of tones and textures between the one material allowing for visual complexity and a striking tactility across the surface. A standout interior feature is the double-layered cavity brick system that stands proudly in the family room, creating a monochromatic contrast between Daniel Robertson Bricks in Buff and Austral Bricks La Paloma in Romero.
