Mondobruto explores the tension between brutalism and nature
Italian designer Alessio Fava’s Mondobruto is a sculptural terrarium series that imagines what happens when nature reclaims brutalist architecture.
Each miniature world pairs handcrafted concrete forms with live mosses and plants that slowly colonize the rigid geometries inside sealed glass environments. Inspired by Japanese moss cultivation, the living installations reflect on impermanence, decay, and the quiet persistence of nature.
