Bricks. They’re the very foundation of countless homes and iconic buildings, symbols of strength, durability, and timeless appeal. But at Flosa, we believe bricks are far more than just structural elements; they are an essential design language, offering endless possibilities for architectural expression.
In New Zealand's diverse landscape and design preferences, choosing the right brick can define the character and lasting beauty of any project. That's why Flosa brings you a curated selection that goes "beyond the ordinary," offering not just building blocks, but design statements.
The Enduring Charm of Standard Bricks
While our focus leans towards the unique, we understand the enduring appeal of a well-crafted standard brick. Our standard bricks are anything but basic. They form the reliable backbone of traditional and contemporary designs, offering robust performance and classic aesthetics. They are the perfect canvas upon which to build, ensuring structural integrity and a timeless finish that stands the test of time and the New Zealand climate.
A Glaze of Sophistication: Elevate Your Design with Glazed Bricks
Imagine a brick with a luminous, almost jewel-like finish that catches the light and adds an unparalleled level of sophistication to any façade or interior. That's the magic of our glazed bricks. Available in a stunning array of colours and sheens, from subtle mattes to vibrant high-gloss, glazed bricks offer:
Distinctive Aesthetics: Create dramatic feature walls, elegant commercial spaces, or striking residential exteriors.
Enhanced Durability: The glazed surface provides an extra layer of protection, making them exceptionally resistant to weather, stains, and graffiti.
Easy Maintenance: Their smooth, non-porous surface is simple to clean, ensuring lasting beauty with minimal effort.
Artisanal Touch: The Unique Beauty of Handmade Bricks
Embrace the warmth and character that only true craftsmanship can provide with our handmade bricks. Each brick tells a story, bearing the subtle imperfections and variations that are hallmarks of a traditionally crafted product. These unique qualities create façades and interiors with unparalleled depth, warmth, and a truly authentic feel.
Distinctive Character: No two handmade bricks are exactly alike, offering a rich, individual texture and tone.
Timeless Appeal: They evoke a sense of heritage and enduring quality, perfect for both classic and contemporary designs that seek warmth and charm.
Natural Aesthetics: Their organic textures and varied hues blend seamlessly into the New Zealand landscape.
Making a Statement: The Architectural Elegance of Our 500mm Long Brick
For those seeking a contemporary, minimalist aesthetic, our 500mm long bricks are a game-changer. These linear, elongated bricks redefine traditional brickwork, creating sleek, modern lines that are incredibly popular in current architectural designs across New Zealand.
The extended length of these long format bricks provides:
Clean, Sophisticated Lines: Fewer vertical mortar joints mean a more seamless, flowing appearance.
Enhanced Scale: Ideal for creating a grander sense of scale and proportion on larger structures.
Modern Appeal: Perfect for architects and homeowners looking to achieve a distinctively modern and minimalist look.
Your Vision, Our Craft: Unleashing Creativity with Bespoke Brick Options
This is where Flosa truly stands apart. We understand that some projects demand a unique touch, a specific colour, texture, or form that isn't readily available off-the-shelf. Our bespoke brick options are designed to bring your most ambitious architectural visions to life.
With our bespoke service, you can explore:
Custom Colours: Match existing palettes or create entirely new hues.
Unique Textures: From ultra-smooth to heavily textured, tailored to your design intent.
Special Shapes & Sizes: Beyond the 500mm long brick, we can explore custom dimensions and profiles for truly one-of-a-kind results.
Specialty Finishes: Achieve specific aesthetic effects that make your project truly unique.
Authentic Look, Flexible Application: Introducing Brick Slips
Achieve the classic look of traditional brickwork without the weight, space, or structural requirements of full bricks with our versatile brick slips. Also known as brick veneer, these thin slices of real brick are perfect for a multitude of applications:
Interior Feature Walls: Create stunning exposed brick walls in living rooms, kitchens, or commercial spaces.
Renovations & Extensions: Ideal for adding authentic brick aesthetics where structural changes for full bricks are not feasible.
Lightweight Solutions: Perfect for areas where weight is a concern, such as upper stories or internal partitions.
