Synopsis
This compelling and in-depth study looks at some of the most inspiring and iconic brutalist buildings, in a quest to find the soul of one of modern architecture's most misunderstood movements. No modern architectural style has aroused so much awe and so much ire as Brutalism. This is architecture at its most assertive : compelling, distinctive, sometimes terrifying. But, as Concrete Concept shows, Brutalism can be about love as well as hate. This inspiring and informative photographic survey profiles 50 brutalist buildings from around the world. Travelling the globe - from Le Corbusier's Unite d'Habitation (Marseille, France), to the Former Whitney Museum (New York City, USA) to Preston Bus Station (Preston, UK) - this book covers concrete architecture in its most extraordinary forms, demonstrating how Brutalism has changed our landscapes and infected popular culture. Author and architecture expert Christopher Beanland writes passionately about how this style came to be, tracing its origins from the modernist art movement , the trauma of World War Two and the need for municipal renewal. Now in a stylish mini format, this is the perfect tour of Brutalism's biggest hits. "A lively journey around the world's brutalist buildings" Frieze.com "A dazzlingly shot whistle-stop of the much-maligned style's greatest hits ... the book showcases confidence, clarity and the historical importance of the movement."

- p***k (1177)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe item - book on tunisian crochet is fantastic. It has a perfect appearance. Is as described. Delivered finally today even tho eBay app said delivered yesterday. Great communication in a timely manner from seller after not being able to find package. Just relief to have it delivered today. Thanks seller for assistance. Disappointed to find a sliced edge on the spine of the booklet tho. But just glad it is here.
- r***e (605)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufFantastic Seller! Great communication, sent actual photos of the Bible AND - LOWERED the PRICE for me! This is a very thick book of over 2000 pages (yes, 2K+) and was surprised it was just in a slightly padded envelope. The envelope had obvious damage including a tear along the Bible edge, may have let some moisture in - even dirt and wood chips embedded on one end of the envelope. Miraculously, the book looked very good once out. Very near MINT for a 31 year old book! Great! THANKS THANKS TY!!
- e***n (278)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe book shipped and arrived very quickly. It was packaged adequately and in good condition, as described. The photo was accurate and the price was good. I was pleasantly surprised to find a poster of the cover art for the book included and folded in the back of it. The seller was very good and I'd be happy to purchase from them again in the future.The Newford Stories: Dreams Underfoot / The Ivory and The Horn / Moonlight a... (Nr. 226589034987)
