Cali Architects
Cali Architects is focusing on a concept called “tropical brutalism,” which integrates growth and sustainability.
‘Peu Brut’ is a house concept by the firm sparked by the COVID-19 epidemic. It’s a tiny house built to meet the needs of people who want to live off the grid in peace. The company’s concept is that we should downsize our homes in order to live bigger in the long term.
This tiny house design will have a lower environmental effect and a more breathable building shell if hempcrete is used as a substitute for concrete. Water harvesting systems, solar panels, an edible landscape, and a compact house are all what just needed.
This Brutalist Tiny house, with a 24sqm building footprint, can accommodate up to 5 people and has a full bathroom, kitchenette, dining bar, living area, sleeping loft, and parking space.
The idea is to bring our loved ones with us and free to live in isolation as long as we want. This can be constructed anywhere, on a farm, in the mountains, or in a cityscape.
