Brutalism, is a bold architectural style that emerged in the 1950s, gaining prominence through the 1960s and 1970s. Defined by its use of raw, unfinished concrete as a primary material, Brutalism emphasizes rugged, unadorned aesthetics that make a strong visual statement. The term “Brutalism” originates from the French word brut, meaning raw, which perfectly encapsulates the style’s focus on simplicity, functionality, and the absence of unnecessary decoration.

Brutalist buildings are renowned for their imposing presence and their departure from traditional architectural details like cornices and pediments. They often possess a stark and industrial aesthetic. Historically, this style found application in various public buildings, including housing complexes, educational institutions, and functional structures. While some critics have labeled Brutalism as stark and inhospitable, such judgments remain subjective. A2 Design Lab’s task is to create a website design for the architectural agency Senyo, inspired by Brutalism with a modern twist. This involves showcasing Senyo’s portfolio of Brutalist buildings and incorporating modern design elements for a visually striking and user-friendly website.
