In the Tarn plain, clay is everywhere. Difficult to get out of it on wet days! But the clay smiles when it changes from a lump to a brick, when this common material becomes unique. Not by quantity, it abounds! But by the fruit of metamorphosis which allows it to dress in subtle colors for the best of regional architecture. Toulouse pink but Rabastens, Gaillac and Albi reds. Finally, reds... Red spotted with a thousand white particles, faded red, dark red, loyal red... An accomplice to architectural imagination, the brick can be simple for the suburbs, refined for the private mansions of Castres and Albi. Now, it has other attractions: healthiness, thermal capacity in particular.
