Brutalist architecture, starting in the mid-20th century, marks a significant shift in design. This style features monolithic structures, dominant forms, and extensive use of raw materials like concrete. With its rough and exposed surfaces, Brutalist architecture creates a dramatic, impressive, and often provocative appearance.
