Building Foundations

We repurpose brick to revitalize our communities and spread our love of handcrafted design. Our bricks come from the foundations of locales affected by blight, often homes or buildings that are condemned or marked for demolition. Proceeds benefit community initiatives working to combat the impact of poverty, inequality, and blight. Each piece is crafted into a limited edition design artifact with a unique patina and history that will become a part of your home.

Created by hand and lovingly assembled, our packaging is made from a a sturdy and recyclable cardboard screenprinted by hand using nontoxic water-based inks, interior packaging is hand screenprinted and bound with renewable hemp rope. Each kit includes everything you need to set up right when your package arrives.

This weekend was a wild and sweaty work session. Thankful we have such an incredible team on this edition. We hand cleaned over 200 bricks with chisels and brushes, and loaded a 16 ft truck to the rafters with supplies for crafting our packaging. All materials are currently stored in our makerspace storage, and we are all sweaty and happy. As always, our materials are 100% recyclable, right down to our new shipping padding. Here's to the next step on this collaboration with #invisionapp ADVENTURE! #bricks #brick #brickxbrick #brickxbrickxbrick #brickxbrick2017 www.brickxbrick.co #design #graphicdesign #productpackaging #designforgood #toledo #ohio #itmatterswhereyoumakeit #invision #designmakeseverythingpossible

We are so excited to officially announce this collaboration! Brick X Brick is partnering with @invisionapp to craft a custom edition of 175 pieces. This edition is the result of a collaborative design process where we've used the Invision platform to share our designs back and forth, craft custom packaging, and hone in on the beautiful details for this launch. This iterative process has been invaluable for our communication, and is ongoing even today. This edition includes, as always, a donation to our community in support of creative placemaking efforts designed to directly benefit the local residents and to combat the conditions responsible for blight. There is so much more to come from this announcement, and we'll share what we can along the way. But for now, it's time to get to work! #designforgood #brickxbrickxbrick #graphicdesign #invision #invisionapp #design #brick #brickxbrick #branding #collaboration #blight #toledo #itmatterswhereyoumakeit #ohiomade

Big thanks and shout to to @ucllc for sharing the love. Pretty cool stuff. We've quiet on the social front as of late at Brickxbrick.co but that's because we share when we have something meaningful to put out there. Pretty shortly, we're going to announce an amazing collaboration that's been working behind the scenes for the last few weeks. Stay tuned... #design #brickxbrick #brickxbrickxbrick #graphicdesign #underconsideration #branding #designforgood #progress
