FRICKS – Upcycled Foamed Bricks reimagines the brick through circular design, digital fabrication, and material innovation.
FRICKS transforms construction and demolition waste into lightweight, high-performance geopolymer bricks with expanded volume, low embodied energy, and enhanced thermal insulation.
Cured at ambient temperature and compatible with 3D printing or casting, FRICKS requires no firing and adapts to complex geometries. A 1:1 prototype wall, exhibited at the 2025 Venice Biennale, demonstrates its modular logic and expressive potential.
FRICKS offers a scalable system for regenerative architecture, where materials are not discarded, but revalued, reconfigured, and reintegrated into the built environment.
