Rusticated Brick

Normal Brick

Rusticated Brick - To cut or shape (masonry blocks) so as to create a bold textured look, often by beveling the edges to form deep-set joints while leaving the central face rough-hewn or carved with various pointed or channeled patterns.
Rusticated bricks are also made to look older.
Rusticated bricks do not have a specific time period or tradition in which they have been used for the first time. The architect tried to give the building, town center, an old look, something that have lasted for a long time. The builder was effective in potraying the image that the building has been there for a long period of time.
