2- What construction material would you use to build your own house? Why?

**To build my own house, I would use bricks, because it is a very resistent materia, specially against fire and weather changes, and can ber produces in a big variety of shapes and textures. Besides, I actually like the brick color, because I am a fan of earth colors. Adittionaly, bricks provide a very nice appearance to the exteriors of the buildings and houses, and a charming environment in interiors, with a mixture of rustic expression and elegance.**


 * 3- Uses gived to brick in Piazza Del Campo (Siena, Italy) **
 * The most important function for the bricks I see in the Piazza del Campo is the aesthetic and the classic elegance the bricks provide. In here, the bricks are not only the construction material, its are the style and the character of the square, because all the visible parts in the square are made with bricks. Piazza Del Campo is a medieval square with shell shape, with a “fish-bone” red brick pattern, which divide the piazza in two sections. Besides, the bricks are an essential part of the facades and walls of the surrounding buildings, with the uniformity provided by using bricks with different tones of red. **
