The Settlement Brunnadern is a residential complex of four apartment buildings located on Brunnadernstrasse in Bern, Switzerland, completed in 1972 by the architectural collective Atelier 5. Designed in the brutalist style, the buildings are constructed of béton brut (raw concrete), a material that defines the aesthetic vocabulary of the complex. The settlement represents a significant example of modernist housing design from the early 1970s and has been recognized as a class B Swiss cultural property of regional importance, reflecting its architectural and historical value.
