Description:
Brutalist Interiors reveals the hitherto overlooked interiors of Brutalist and concrete buildings around the world. The book combines photography of select interiors with essays by leading architectural writers and academics on subjects ranging from childhood inside Montreal's Habitat 67 to the interiors of Denys Lasdun in Ghana, Tadao Ando in Japan, and the use of Brutalist techniques in contemporary design.
Photographs by leading architectural photographers such as Roberto Conte, Stefano Perego, Simon Phipps and Iwan Baan and essays written by Blake Gopnik, Ewan Harrison, Deane Madsen, Gili Merin, Naomi Pollock, Felix Torkar, Ljubica Slavkovic and Rixt Woudstra take readers inside the interiors of some of the world's most remarkable Brutalist and contemporary concrete buildings.
Blue Crow Media is known for its celebration of Brutalism through its popular urban architecture maps and cult annual Brutalist Calendar.
