The Brutalist Architecture

   Brutalist architecture is a style of architecture which flourished from the 1950s to the mid 1970s, spawned from the modernist architectural movement.

   Remarkable for:   Brutalist buildings are usually made out of concrete, have a striking look and tend to be rough, with prominent corners and sharp edges. They may look formidable, much like medieval fortresses, or poor, cold and unkept. Some critics find they project totalitarianism.
