It’s #BrutalMonday! That pot of gold at the end of the rainbow? Its Brutalism. Today’s brutal beauty is the Humphrey Federal Building by Marcel Breuer - an absolute stunner.

It’s #BrutalMonday! This week, we go to Denver and the Downtown Sheraton. IM Pei certainly knew what's up when using precast with exposed aggregate.

It’s #BrutalMonday! HUD has one of the coolest HQs in DC, the Weaver Federal Building by Marcel Breuer. We should make the White House brutalist too.

We had a great time at Landmarks Illinois’ Preservation Forward event a few weeks back. Josh serves on LI’s Skyline Council, and we are thrilled to continue supporting their work.

It’s #BrutalMonday! Today’s pick is a brutalist landscape by Lawrence Halprin - Freeway Park in Seattle. It's such a great concrete oasis on top of the highway downtown.

It’s #BrutalMonday! Here is a brutal frog courtesy of Paul Rudolph’s Government Service Center in Boston to start the week. I hear Concrete the Frog is Kermit’s cousin.

It’s #BrutalMonday! What better way to start the week than with a donut? It may be inedible, but Gordon Bunshaft’s design of the Hirshhorn Museum in DC turns heads.

It’s #BrutalMonday! Let’s go to CDMX and the Japanese Embassy by Kenzo Tange. As much as I wanted to go in and explore, the fencing and cameras suggested I do otherwise.

Looking back to our first design commission this past year. This basement renovation is getting closer to construction, and we hope our clients will be as happy as the Enscape entourage!

Looking back on a great PechaKucha Night a couple weeks back. We learned that Ornament Is material, religion, biomimetics, the strange loop, narrative, and more!

It’s #BrutalMonday! This concrete at the Clyfford Still Museum by Allied Works is simply amazing. I think I’m going to talk about it in my Pecha Kucha this week.

I'll take a hideous building which engages the street over a spectacular one that kills it, given those options. #ilookaround *and* #ilookup
#ilookup at buildings all the time. It greatly enhances my life. But architecture's real impacts are on the ground, not in the sky.
