The Béton-brut, a pure, sculpted monolith, is a perfect definition of an understated architecture.
It features not one, but three separate volumes arranged in a staggered formation on different levels to hide its layout. Each level is linked by a staircase, designed as an element to bring a softer accent to the rigid interior.
Inside, the use of the most inanimate materials revealed a picturesque abode. The translucent acrylic glass floods the muted color palette of the interior with natural gradient light to give a versatile and comfortable ambiance to the spaces.
The design aims to expose the soft side of brutalist architecture. It draws strength from the raw concrete finished to create a monumental form.
