Red Brick Most Attractive.

It may be stated as a general fact that brick having a reddish cast makes the best appearance, and those which are purple, very pale-yellow or gray in tone are likely to look cold and forbidding. Take yellow brick, for instance. Yellow of the ordinary tone is too raw to be pleasant, but when it is on the orange shade (reddish) it becomes beautiful. Orange yellow id warm and pleasant to the eye.
