Nah. You make the studwork structural and use the bricks as cladding. Its
standard practice.
Studs with a stressed skin (strawboard) outer is usual, then a membrane
tacked on, then some kind of support nailed on to key the blockwork too.
Or you can clad with fake timber cladding that never needs painting.
PS I just realised that what I mean by strawboard is strictly sterling
board.
Strawboards is really made of straw!
strawboard is stramit board shirley?
