“The brick industry is pleased to acknowledge these exceptional examples of brick architecture,” says Dick Jennison, president of BIA. “The winning projects demonstrate the versatility and enduring appeal of clay brick in today’s construction. Brick is, and always has been, a superior cladding material with unlimited design potential.”
