Modern Masonry Systems Supporting Structural and Architectural Flexibility

Modern masonry systems have evolved significantly to balance structural performance with architectural freedom. Contemporary approaches integrate engineered materials, advanced installation techniques, and flexible connection systems that allow masonry to serve both load-bearing and aesthetic functions. These innovations enable architects and builders to create striking commercial and institutional designs while maintaining the durability, fire resistance, and thermal properties that make masonry a reliable choice for contemporary construction.

Innovations in Masonry Construction for Resilient Building Design

Innovations in masonry construction techniques and material science have fundamentally enhanced building resilience across diverse environmental and structural contexts. Contemporary masonry systems incorporate advanced reinforcement methods, specialized material formulations, and sophisticated design approaches that improve resistance to seismic activity, environmental stresses, and long-term wear. These innovations position masonry as a reliable, sustainable solution for resilient building design that protects occupants and extends infrastructure service life.

Make Architects has been granted planning permission for a flower-shaped PPS7 House in the Pennine hillside, North West England. Through close collaboration with client Gary Neville, Bolton Council and the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment, Make Architects has designed an ambitious single-storey 8,000 sq ft home embedded into the picturesque English countryside.

Speaking on the decision, Stuart Fraser, Partner at Make, said: “We truly believe in this design and are delighted with the Secretary of State’s decision and look forward to delivering this exciting home. It has been a privilege to be given a brief which has allowed us to truly test the boundaries of current sustainable thinking in terms of design and construction and to work alongside some leading experts in this field.”
