I love the way glazed bricks have been used to add decorative elements to the facade of this section of a Victorian weaving factory on French Street in the Dalmarnock area of Glasgow. It's small features like this which really help to make buildings stand out, but that are all too often missing from modern buildings.

An industrial building made from red bricks and sandstone and decorated with glazed bricks.

A textured, collage-like composition blending decayed stone walls, crumbling architecture, and fragmented facades. Layers of brick and plaster form an abstract, stratified surface that evokes the slow sedimentation of history. Cracks, voids, and partial structures suggest forgotten buildings compressed into a single visual plane — a place where time has folded into space. The palette is muted and aged, reinforcing a sense of erosion, memory, and ruin.

This is from one the gardens this weekend. It was quite hard to get photos because it was a small garden and there were lots of people there (I generally try not to photograph people - at least not in a very recognizable way if I can help it) but we managed to snag this and another photo of a cute gnome! 😂✨

The photo is of a weathered, yellow/ochre-coloured wall with a basketball hoop on it on the top left.
There is a pipe at the top of the photo running across it which creates a sort of natural frame. The paint on the wall is heavily chipped and flaking, revealing the underlying brickwork at the base and near the top right under the pipe. The sunlight casts shadows on the surface of the wall under the basketball hoop.

Mom, helping me pack: "I presume you don't want me to pack the brick?"

Me: "oh no, please pack the brick"

It has sentimental value. And I think it looks cool.

Rolling out the green carpet for #Doorsday! 🚪

On Sunday, I took my bike and explored some districts in the south of #Magdeburg. In #Westerhüsen, I found some #urbanDecay, but also rural vibes, understated street art, colourful houses, and a lot of nature. This #door caught my eye immediately. I don't know what the #building used to be – maybe a #post office, with the #postBox and yellow details?

The image shows a brick building. The building has a prominent arched doorway with a weathered wooden door. Yellow handrails lead up to the steps of the door, and a yellow mailbox is attached to the side of the building. Greenery grows around the base of the steps. The building is constructed from red bricks with some black brick detailing. The number '59' is visible above the door.

Hey #Oakland & #Berkeley: I #georeferenced the 1854 Julius Kellersberger "#Map of the Ranchos of Vicente and Domingo #Peralta" using #QGIS. I've exported a 300dpi (zoomable) image of it with some transparency and a modern #OpenStreetMap base map, so you can see how it relates to the modern world.

I will write a blog post about it, with zoomed-in sections, but for now, a few observations:

* There are some very old roads.
* Why the streets and neighborhoods are cattywampus.
* Domingo's home (cordornices) is a landmark, as is Vicente's preserve.
* The brothers had a road between their homes, mostly gone, but traces remain. Vicente Way at Claremont Ave is the beginning.

I'll also upload a 72 dpi version here, but the useful version is at the google drive link. It's big. You might want to download it.

One of the reasons I did this was because of "Brik Kilns" at Adams Point, where the Grand Lake Theater is, now. I've been researching #bricks ...
