The concept behind the first art created on the London Brick began with Melissa, the founder of I AM BRICK, who saw the iconic London Brick as a unique canvas. Inspired by her love for pop culture from the 80s, Melissa transformed the traditional brick into a vibrant piece of art. The ‘original gold’ brick marked the beginning of this creative journey, blending urban history with contemporary design. Over time, this innovative concept has evolved, with Melissa continuing to create bold, pop art-inspired pieces that celebrate both nostalgia and modern-day culture. Each design reflects a fusion of iconic references and artistic expression, making the London Brick a timeless symbol of creativity and pop art. An ode to a gold brick See me sparkle, watch me shine. I am yours and you are mine Push me up against a door, prop a stack of books or more A paperweight upon your table, a touch of glam, you know I’m able Go on, touch me, hold me in your arms and finally surrender to my charms
