    Also brick is just a horrible material for warmer climate; I looked this up when I realized brick houses are so rare here (I’m in SoCal).

            Pretty neat, I’ve never seen masonry like this before.

            I’ll point out that the webbing is likely strong, but considering the lack of ductility, this seems likely to fail during an earthquake. What’re these called, I’d like to look into them more.
