Description
The Brutalist aesthetic is enjoying a renaissance, and this book documents Brutalism as never before. In the most wide-ranging investigation ever undertaken into one of architecture's most powerful movements, more than 850 Brutalist buildings—existing and demolished, classic and contemporary—are organized geographically into nine continental regions.
Much-loved masterpieces in the UK and USA sit alongside lesser-known examples in Europe, Asia, Australia, and beyond—102 countries in all, proving that Brutalism was, and continues to be, a truly international architectural phenomenon.
Atlas of Brutalist Architecture by Phaidon Editors is an essential read for anyone interested in architectural history and the lasting impact of Brutalist design.
