8 Incredible Concrete Homes in Latin America

In southern Brazil, a 3,390-square-foot house designed by Barbara Becker and built by Charrua Construções perches on a slope overlooking the city of Pato Branco. The building was constructed out of poured-in-place concrete, which is discretely revealed at specific locations, like the underside of the cantilevered roof and the exposed pilotis at the front of the home. This creates a contrast between the rest of the building's crisp white walls and the rugged texture of the concrete elements.
