Project “The Old One”

This small grill fireplace was built as a compact yet expressive structure for cooking over an open fire. Its distinctive character comes from the use of old pre-revolutionary brick, which differs from modern brick by its larger format and its different visual effect in the masonry.



The construction used old brick, often referred to as “tsarist brick.” This term is connected with the fact that in the pre-revolutionary period different standards for brick production were in force, and the brick differed noticeably from modern material in its dimensions and proportions.

It is precisely this material that shaped the outer appearance of the fireplace, giving it a livelier, more textured, and historically expressive character.

The fireplace was built in May 2016.
