At Home Trends Builders, we’re always seeking the best in building materials, blending tradition with innovation to create unique and enduring structures. This week, Peter and Elaine had the exciting opportunity to visit one of the leaders in high-quality masonry products—S.Anselmo Bricks, located in Venice, Italy.
Discovering the Craft of S.Anselmo Bricks
For over half a century, S.Anselmo has been producing exquisite handmade bricks that stand the test of time. Their craftsmanship focuses on combining the natural beauty of clay with a sophisticated modern touch. The company is renowned for its wide array of products, ranging from traditional handmade bricks to innovative contemporary designs. S.Anselmo’s most distinctive feature is their ability to create not just building materials, but timeless pieces that elevate the aesthetic value of any architectural project.
During their visit, Peter and Elaine got an in-depth tour of the state-of-the-art facility where the magic happens. The tour included a close-up look at their manufacturing process, where tradition meets cutting-edge technology, ensuring that each brick maintains the integrity of its craftsmanship while meeting modern construction standards.

The Perfect Fit for ‘Dublin Central’
One of the most exciting takeaways from the visit was the opportunity to choose materials for ‘Dublin Central’, our upcoming development. After seeing S.Anselmo’s range of products, we’re thrilled to announce that we will be using their stunning Italian Glazed 70 Series Green Clay Brick for the facade of this prestigious project.
The 70 Series Green Clay Brick features a unique, glossy finish that blends elegance with sustainability. The green tone adds a natural, organic look, which beautifully complements the Christchurch Central landscape. The use of these premium bricks will not only enhance the building’s aesthetic but also ensure long-lasting durability and performance.
