I recently admired the brick lattice in Morocco and have a question.

The patterns are very detailed, but I'm curious about the structural methods. Has anyone here worked with similar decorative bricklaying techniques?

Do they use secret glue or something? I'd mess up that pattern in two seconds flat. Glad we have pros for this stuff.

Ever see those brick patterns in things like sunshades or fences now? Makes me wonder if the old ways of building them are still used or if it's all new tricks.

Isn't it wild how those old brick ideas pop up everywhere now in concrete or metal? I see it all the time in building screens and apartment facades. Feels like we're pulling old beauty into new stuff because plain boxes got boring. It's the same cycle, where a cool old trick comes back around when people get sick of the simple look.

The old ways thing makes me laugh because I can barely stack two bricks straight. Now we're making fancy sun screens out of the same idea.
