“THE WALL OFTENTIMES BECOMES AN ARRESTING FEATURE” 
“There are many ways of building an all-brick wall—many very interesting ways. The play of surface 
light and shadow, a flowing and varied line will lift it to distinction. A happy flow of line is essential— 
from wall to teahouse roof, down again to coping, up over the arch of a gateway—break and diversify it as 
you will, but create a feeling of oneness. Brick has decided vivacity, particularly among the less hackneyed 
sorts, and such friendly enduringness of aspect that nothing has yet superseded it for certain purposes.”
