Brutalism

Kasia Ungasan is a striking example of Tropical Brutalism, combining the bold, raw qualities of exposed concrete with responsive design to climate and landscape. According to the profile on ArchDaily, the three-story building is partially embedded into the sloping site so that lower levels blend into the ground, helping with both visual integration and thermal regulation. Clean lines, an honest material palette, full-height glazing, and interplay of indoor-outdoor spaces characterise the architecture.
