RAW CONCRETE: THE BEAUTY OF BRUTALISM
Published by William Heinemann. 1st. 2016
Slightly better than very good condition in a nearly fine dustwrapper. Overturning the perception of Brutalist buildings as the penny-pinching, utilarian products of dutiful social concern. A closer look, uncovering the luxuriously skilled craft and daring engineering with which the best buildings of the 1960s came into being. A wide ranging journey through Britain, stopping to examine how eight extraordinary buildings were made - from commission to construction - why they have been so villified, and why they are beginning to be loved. White paper boards, black title to spine. B/w photos.
Light shelf wear to top & tail of spine. Contents clean.
