Brutalist architecture is one of the most controversial architecture styles. It began in the years after WWII in Europe before traveling around the world to redefine social housing, college campuses, and government buildings. It aimed to create a utopia for everyone but few saw the vision. Over the years, the style has seen a resurgence in popularity, leading many to wonder what is it about brutalism that people like. Join us as we explore the history of brutalist architecture on ARCHITECTURE 101.

This was a wonderful surprise in my algorithm. I would have bet money this was a higher-view video. Your narration, editing, and research are excellent. Keep it up!

Thank very much. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I’m just getting started. There will be plenty of interesting discussions on architecture coming soon.

I am a noob when it comes to architecture, but have been learning about Brutalist architecture. I went to undergrad at the University of Pittsburgh and realize now that it has a lot of Brutalist-style buildings. I have a new appreciation for it.

i’m a fashion designer and i’ve always been captivated by brutalism, never really sure why since i don’t even necessarily enjoy the style visually, but when i’m designing a collection it always seems to end up on my mood-board at some point in the process. i think i enjoy how the style is uncomfortable and in some cases almost unwelcoming, but also used so frequently for public buildings. i really like exploring that sort of contradiction in my own work. in a weird way, it feels very human to me.

Thank you for the insights into Brutalism. As an architect I've always had mixed feeling with this style. I do like your description of it focusing on "Symbolism". Unfortunate for me it solicits a coldness and baroness feeling due to the exaggerated scale need for the symbolism it want to project. On the bright side it has provide example for using materials in a much rawer form that to me project more comfort, more warmth, and more interest when used at smaller scales that match better functionalism.

You’re not alone. Throughout working on this video I was conflicted by the style. I appreciated the intent, but you’re right it failed in that intent.

Overall, an excellent, well structured presentation. Many points well taken.. much to agree with here. Poured concrete eventually became very expensive, and glass and the various forms of glass and composition material paneling, relatively cheaper. The result was more buildings with less stature, less memorable;ity.

Much ahead of its time - this is a style that may become popular in 500 or 1000 years from now. It strikes one as pieces of 'future archaeology' :- )

This is a wonderful video. I know little about architecture, but this was so enthralling. It took me some place. Itfelt as if I was watching a video about supernovae. Well done and thank you!

My thoughts have changed over the years... I dislike the selfishness, lack of harmony with the surrounding environment and architecture (though this isn't entirely unique to brutalism). But, I've been in one really beautifully designed brutalist building, and I couldn't deny how much I enjoyed being both inside and outside.

Just to let the content creator know, in French, béton is masculine, thus taking the masculine form of adjective. So, rough or unfinished concrete is "béton brut," not "brute." No grey area in that matter. Otherwise, thanks for the overview and social-historical focus.

Brutalism is the decadence of the soul and the death of art. Every time I walk by a building that is built in this style, it irritates and angers me. Let's recover building for people and stop praising the egos of people who could very well be adult babies.

So if heaven exist it should look brutalist? Sense everyone is equal in heaven and gods authority is absolute and ever lasting.

Down vote! This video is educational but it's creators are failing in one obvious way. If you're not going to label your photographs, identifying them with name or place or architect or photographer, to the best of your ability, then don't use photographs. Stop wasting our time.
