Show me an office tower that is not built with wrought iron and concrete. The thing people don’t like about Brutalism is its honesty. If a layer of chinzy art deco spray painted Styrofoam is the difference between making it through the day and cracking up, you’ve got bigger problems.

This also heavily undersells how beautiful a clever concrete structure can be. I’ll take eye-popping geometries of stone over flat texture-less mirror-window walls any day.
