Beton brut
Beton brut, also known as "raw concrete" in French, is an architectural style characterized by its exposed, unfinished concrete surface. This aesthetic highlights the material's natural texture, color, and imperfections, often showcasing formwork patterns and structural elements. Popularized in the mid-20th century, especially by architects like Le Corbusier, beton brut emphasizes honesty in construction and a minimalist approach. It is valued for its durability, low maintenance, and modern appearance, often used in both functional and artistic architectural projects to create bold, expressive spaces.
