Abstract: A veneer wall covering to simulate a brick wall through the provision of adhering a plurality of thin blocks formed from dry wall sheet stock to an interior wall in any known brick layup patterns, applying a coating over the blocks to produce a textured surface which duplicates the texture of bricks, followed by applying a desired color selected from the prevailing color or real brick, or variations thereof.

Abstract: A building wall erected from blocks presenting one or more surfaces formed with a matrix of grooves generally horizontally and vertically related, and an overlay veneer or applied surface coating adapted to be impressed or indented with appropriate tools in a manner to produce a wide variety of designs by selection of different combination of the grooves in the matrix. A method of variously decorating one or more building wall surfaces or sides of walls with the guidance of a matrix of grooves and an overlay coating adapted to be impressed or indented in cooperation with preselected grooves of the matrix.

Abstract: Mortarless interlocking blocks for making a wall assembly composed of masonry blocks laid up in multiple courses and consisting of stretcher blocks making up longitudinal walls which converge at the corners in corner blocks which are formed as right hand and left hand corner blocks. The blocks in the wall assembly are made with a unique arrangement of mating ribs and grooves which makes the laying of the blocks easy and yields a cooperating group of blocks which can carry loads and which makes the creation of a wall very simple and fast as no mortar is needed and the blocks are self aligning and stable.
