Most Impressive Examples Of African Brutalist Architecture
Instagram account african_brutalism is dedicated to sharing African Brutalist Architecture and here are some of the most impressive buildings
The Hotel du Lac, Tunisia
The building was designed in the Brutalist style by the Italian architect Raffaele Contigiani and built from 1970 to 1973 for the Tunisian government of Habib Bourguiba. It was constructed on 190 reinforced concrete piles up to 60 m (200 ft) deep, and built from exposed concrete (béton brut) around a steel structure, creating a single long block with ten floors, with large windows. Projecting cantilevered stairs at each end creates an inverted pyramid shape.
