    The document discusses the architectural style of Brutalism used in the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC). Brutalism is characterized by raw concrete construction that is massive in scale and fortress-like in appearance. It emphasizes exposed concrete and rugged combinations of brick and concrete materials. Some key examples mentioned include Le Corbusier's Unité d'habitation in France from 1952, considered the birth of the Brutalism style, and the Buffalo City Court Building from 1971-1974 as a classic example. The document then explains how PICC employs Brutalism in its design, with descriptions and images provided of its raw concrete interior structures and art installations.
