Creating beauty takes time. Case of Brick Facing

It is almost not possible to build something timeless and beautiful in a hurry.

When building, you can use the same amount of money that would hsve built a beautiful house to build an ugly thing. The area will not reduce, you might use the same quantity of materials and most likely, you will spend more time cumulatively in correcting defects, change of mind and trying to perfect that which has no beauty.

To build anything beautiful, one must be driven by keenness, patience and understanding.

Example: Building a Brick Facade.

A brick facade needs attention because the number of mortar joints are many, any smudges of concrete will stain the bricks and is equally hard to clean. Therefore, building a brick wall or cladding an existing wall with facing bricks is a good example of, “building beauty takes time.”

“Either you are trying to make something beautiful or you are trying to get it finished. You cannot serve two masters.” – Gary Zucker.
