        It’s a matter of comparison.

        Like sandpaper grit. You wouldn’t call sandpaper smooth but you can say one grit is smoother than the other. Ergo, smooth brick.

      Those are just “bricks”, and I’d put them in the “smooth” category.

      That’s what I was talking about when I was referring to smooth bricks

      It’s even worser when it’s those smoothly polished ones

      Smooth bricks make buildings look ugly in my opinion because smooth bricks make everything look flat and boxy while Rock face bricks give a building definition and contrast
