OMNI颠覆了镂空砖的传统定义，为建筑和室内设计提供了一种全新的创意。该系列通过改变镂空砖的组合形式，来得到全新的、可以用来打造成创新装置的建筑模块。其独特的设计和比例使得砖块能够通过简单的翻转和组合来打造出一系列的物品：包括但不限于L形的墙壁、波浪形的表面、圆柱，甚至咖啡厅、餐厅和酒吧的桌子。

OMNI reinvents the traditional breeze block to offer an entirely new approach to building and interior design. By transforming the breeze block form to provide a faceted modular block, OMNI allows for a multitude of new and innovative applications to be built and designed. Offering both straight and 45-degree angles to be achieved simply by flipping the brick, OMNI was designed and proportioned to allow for an array angular forms to be created including but not limited to L shaped walls, undulating surfaces, columns and even coffee, dining and bar tables.

OMNI系列镂空砖是一种干法压制的水泥砌块，无需煅烧或高能处理。黑、百、灰三种颜色的镂空轻砖现已面向全球发售。在与Earp Bros公司的合作中，OMNI设定了一个为当代环境改造传统镂空砖的目标。通过对传统镂空砖的充分实验和思考，设计团队已经完全构思好了新一代产品的样子，以及新产品的应用前景。  OMNI完全重新定义了镂空砖这种材料。他们为这种材料带来了除简单直立式功能墙外的新可能，也为设计师提供了在室内外装置中应用它的机会。该专利设计既新颖又实用，为建筑环境带来了更多的灵活性。

The OMNI breeze block is a dry pressed cement block requiring no firing or high energy processing. OMNI is initially offered in off white, grey and black colour and available worldwide. In collaboration with Earp Bros we set ourselves the goal to reinvent the traditional breeze block for the modern-day environment. By considering and experimenting with the traditional form of the breeze block we were able to entirely re-imaging the product and its potential application. By addressing the potential for the possibility of new applications other than simple straight feature walls the OMNI block entirely re-invents the category opening up opportunities for designers to interpret it’s use for both indoor and outdoor application. The registered design is both novel and practical allowing for greater flexibility within the built environment.
