Browse Forums General Discussion 1 Mar 08, 2009 8:44 pm Im thinking that I would like to design my house with concrete masonry bircks with a split front, see here -> http://www.australbrick.com.au/vic/prod ... asonry.php but Im pretty sure our estate says that a certain percentage of the facade needs to be rendered. I cant find any images of houses built with split face concrete masonry bricks with a partial render on google images. Has anyone seen anything similiar? Maybe a volumne builder has some images? Im trying to work out if it would look any good or not Do you have any opnions on how this would look?

Re: Inspiration Pics - concrete masonry with partial render? 2Mar 08, 2009 8:47 pm Just a thought. There's quite a few houses built with these blocks out at the Rolling Meadows estate in Sunbury. Can't remember if any of them have render, but might be worth a drive to have a look. I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself.

It's often used int he arch up to the point in the roof. For me, my contract doesn't specify render, it's just that render is easier 'A bottle of wine contains more philosophy than all the books in the world.'
