High in Beverly Hills sits a completely unexpected — and Brutalist — retreat for James Jannard.

Long windows are embedded into the board-marked concrete walls of this residential building in Mexico City, designed by American firm Studio Rick Joy.

Since the 1950s, some of the most striking buildings ever produced have come out of the architectural movement known as Brutalism. Big, imposing, and seemingly impenetrable, these buildings certainly seem to fit the name their movement was given. However, the name “Brutalism” doesn’t actually refer to the buildings uncompromising aesthetics. Rather, it comes from the French word for raw, brut, and refers to the raw, exposed concrete and brick used in these buildings’ construction

Inspirational Brutalist house exteriors, featuring reinforced concrete and steel architecture, geometric modern homes, and ultra minimalist house designs.

Ray Kuppe’s Borghei-Cookston House dates back to 1984 but looks like it’s straight out of a science-fiction film set. It’s located on a tree-covered hillside in Santa Monica and makes the most of the woody spot with balconies and huge windows at the rear – where the master bedroom sits under a glass dome. $4.6m via Sotheby’s International Realty #brutalist #brutalism #architecture
