Architecture: Brutalist Minimalism

The architecture of CASA ALMAMÍA is a masterclass in Brutalist Minimalism. Designed by Alberto Kalach, the building emphasises "honest materials"—raw concrete, natural brick, and dark steel—to create a monolithic yet airy atmosphere. It reinterprets the traditional Mexican patio house by introducing clean lines and bold geometric forms, ensuring that light and shadow act as the primary decorative elements.
