Brutalist ARCHITECTURE
Brutalist architecture is a style of architecture which flourished from the
1950s to the mid 1970s, spawned from the modernist architectural movement.
Boston City Hall, part of Government Center, Boston, Massachusetts
(Gerhardt Kallmann and N. Michael McKinnell, 1969). The structure illustrates
typical (but not necessary) Brutalist characteristics such as top-heavy massing,
the use of slender base supports, and the sculptural use of raw concrete.
