ATLAS OF BRUTALIST ARCHITECTURE

Résumé :


Brutalism is one of architecture's most controversial and yet enduringly popular movements. This landmark survey documents more than 850 Brutalist buildings - existing and demolished, classic and contemporary - in the most wide-ranging investigation ever undertaken into one of architecture's most powerful styles. In the tradition of Phaidon architecture atlases, the book is organised geographically into nine continental regions - North America, Central America, South America, Europe West, Europe East, Middle East, Africa, Asia, and Australasia - and includes much-loved classic Brutalist buildings as well as lesser-known examples across the globe, proving that Brutalism was, and continues to be, a truly international architectural phenomenon.
