Interesting, but wouldn't that make every brick building, like, say, on a street in the UK, "brutalist"? I suppose you could argue there's a lack of brutalist intent, but still.
If said bricks are actual construction bricks and not just decorative and that there is no attempt to hide other structural elements I guess it would count.
Not really answering your question, but in my neighborhood (not in the UK), residents push back against developers asking them to install more brick facades on new homes. In my old house, a previous owner had installed brick veneer on one of the interior walls. So that's sort of the opposite of brutalism, or maybe it's some kind of imitated brutalism.
