Brick with ivory mortar?

6 years ago

We are considering this brick for our home and I wanted to check if you had any images of this brick with ivory mortar. What trim, siding and garage door colors would you recommend if we went with ivory mortar? Any opinions/recommendations would be helpful. Thank you.

Hi there...so sorry... I never got a notification that you had left this message... :( I believe all of the photos where we have identified the brick/mortar colors are posted...so I don't know if any other photos exist with the colors that you mentioned...but I will certainly check with the Design Studio to see if they have anything!

Thank you so much for getting back to me. Since we didn't have much time for selections, we chose the stone mill brick with ivory mortar for our home. Now we are struggling with trim siding and window colors. We have a lot of vinyl siding on the front elevation of our home. Could you please recommend some colors that might complement the brick or help me with some advice on how to choose colors. We want our home to look on the brighter side and are looking at sherwin Williams oyster bar for either trim and siding or just siding with sherwin Williams foothills for the trim. Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you so much!

Hi! So I'm not much help with paint color, but wanted to share two things that we did which you might consider: first, we got a high-heat black spraypaint (Rustoleum from Home Depot) and painted the fireplace face plate (the brass part) black, which instantly updated our fireplaces for about $10; second, I did not care for our red brick fireplace, and hand-painted it to look like a different color of brick. Without priming, I hand painted each brick Benjamin Moore Eagle Rock, then sponged on a lighter grey (Willow Creek) and a darker grey (Ironhorse, I think). Later, I decided it needed some brown, so I sponged on a bit of watered down brown paint (can't remember the color). I took care not to get paint on the mortar. The whole project took about a day. It came out great and I get tons of complements. If you are at all hesitant about getting the "painted brick" look when you do it all in one color, I would consider tying this method first. 99% of people would not know that the brick had been painted. If you don't like the way it turns out, you can always go back to your original plan!

Hello there, What you are looking for is vernacular architectural elements and green building elements fused together to function as one fluid structure. That is very much possible with the material but adobe alone won't be enough for your region (salt concentration and humidity in atmosphere). You need to incorporate strawbale and lime paste into the mud mortar or, a more durable option, CEB (Compressed Earth Blocks) which are the same thing and mud could be plastered on them just like brick and mortar. Second, the house is to be designed in such a way to introduce sustainability with local materials and techniques. Third, including RE elements like Solar PV, Wind and biomass energy into the project to make it a standalone built environment. Other features should include sustainable livelihoods and lifestyle, organic farming and permaculture etc. These are some salient features of eco-resorts . You could consult a local architect with experience in sustainable architecture and design. Hope your project comes out good. Regards, Aurum Ideas and Spaces Bhubaneswar +91-9078942136

These are authentic bricks in the construct. You can buy brick cladding from almost any tiles shop or use brick texture, but let me give you a headsup, they wont come anywhere close to original bricks, unless you go for a high end one

I'm sorry we are not with the Jones Company. But you were th only ones that had pictures of the brick we selected so thought I'd get some pointers. If it's against policy or you wouldn't be able to, I would understand. Thanks for trying though.
