ABOUT MY LOVE FOR RED BRICK WITH ALL BLACK TRIM

Red brick with all black trim. Oh, how I love it! From Middleton Place plantation in South Carolina to countless other buildings and homes; often historic, and often in New York City, I think it is absolutely beautiful and classic, and requires minimal upkeep.

Of course, it looks best on historic hundreds-of-years-old red brick, and there are many different shades of red brick; but it looks mighty fine on fifty- to sixty-year-old red brick too, which is why it would have looked great on my house. One fine day I will get to have it and love it up close and personal in a building or home I own.
