Postwar Brutalism
Postwar Brutalism refers to a architectural style that emerged in the post-World War II era, characterized by its use of raw concrete, geometric shapes, and a focus on functionality over decorative elements. Buildings in this style often feature stark, monolithic forms and a sense of strength and solidity. Postwar Brutalist architecture became popular in the 1950s and 1960s as a way to express the social and political ideals of the time, and can be found in public buildings, government complexes, and universities around the world.
