Cool masonry wall system?
Hi, for my studio project, we need to find 3 masonry wall systems and build our favorite one as 1/2" scale model of it, using material of our choice representing the unit masonry. also need sections if possible.
Does anyone know of a super cool masonry wall system???? That responds well to landscape? thanks so much!

(so newport, where did you end up going ?)
thanks so much. these are amazing references! do you have any idea what #3 is? projetc? architect? so i can research for more info on it?
i ended up at njit. well, that's the only school i applied to. how about you? i don't remember if you're a student or practicing?
thanks so much again and if you can think of anything else, pls don't hesitate!!!!!
#3 looks like something from Aranda\Lasch
newport , i am at UCLA. things are good
So I had one more idea for a masonry system, though I cannot find it...imagine a brick with grooves that can slide back and forth. I saw this for a seismic condition.That's all I an think of for now.
Good luck.
