The Brick House by Leth and Gori embodies modern design ideals. The project "creates innovation by reinventing history and by revisiting materials and solutions from historic houses."
The result is a home that merges these historical materials and solutions with modern design principles. The abode relies on sustainable practices and is part of a development project titled Mini-CO2. This initiative is the work of philanthropic foundation Realdania whose aim is to develop affordable and eco-friendly housing with a low CO2 footprint.
So far, the project features a total of six houses that have been built on a site in Nyborg, Denmark. Leth and Gori's Brick House is one of them and is a site that "rediscovers knowledge and techniques from traditional practices."
