YDS Architects designed this modern Brutalist multifamily home with an emphasis on raw materials, geometric precision, and a strong indoor-outdoor connection. The concrete-clad exterior is defined by a series of cubic volumes that create depth and visual interest, while the strategic placement of floor-to-ceiling windows and recessed wooden elements softens the bold Brutalist aesthetic. The structure integrates lush greenery and private balconies, offering a contrast between its industrial materiality and the natural surroundings. This project exemplifies sustainable urban living, utilizing thermal massing of concrete for energy efficiency and large openings that maximize natural light while reducing reliance on artificial lighting.
Inside, the open-plan living spaces reflect a warm minimalist approach, where textured concrete surfaces are complemented by natural wood cabinetry, modern furnishings, and soft lighting accents. The bedrooms continue the theme of simplicity and function, featuring expansive windows, integrated shelving, and a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces. The interiors are designed to maintain a harmonious balance between industrial ruggedness and residential comfort, making this Brutalist-inspired residence a perfect example of how raw materials can create a refined, contemporary living environment.
