David Kowalski founded Brick + Motor after he was laid-off in 2011. Brick + Mortar was born out of necessity, but grew out of a passion that stemmed from his childhood visiting estate sales and yard sales in Atlanta with his grandmother. David found himself filling his new and unexpected free time traveling around the country, searching for treasure. It was something he always loved, but it had never seemed like a viable way to make a living. And here he is 12 years later!

From hand-picked vintage pieces to custom scents and packaging, everything Brick + Motor does is inspired by a love of history and community, travel and music, and an affinity for all things old made new.
