Short, but nice article on double brick housing in WA. It'll be interesting to see how the home construction industry here changes in the coming decades.

    I had to look up what OSB is ( Oriented Strand Board). We don't get much of anybof that stuff here. I'd say its because the weather has rarely required a fully encased house.

    Rendering is way more popular in Perth in the last 20 odd years than in other times. I think if you had double brick it was a status symbol so you want to show the nice uniform bricks off. Maybe it's something about a brick houses perceived permanence? But i don't really know.
