建筑设计的野兽派在上世纪60年代和70年代基本建成，如今散发出一种大胆而不妥协的氛围。它是法语术语“brut”，意思是生的或未经提炼的，这也为这个特殊的建筑现象提供了名称。几十年来，作为现代主义的“继子”，“野兽派”建筑如今正以惊人速度的东山再起，成为数字潮流引领者的最新发现。除了在社交网络上吸引人的用户，野兽派还激发了当代建筑的灵感。大规模的雕塑形式、粗糙的成品和建筑平面图，与现代设计相结合，产生了迷人的新创作。

这本书为战后和当代的野兽派建筑的复杂提供了概述，同时讲解了当今和祖先之间的关系——如外观和设计上，如宏伟的概念和最小的细节之间。

Buildings designated brutalist in style were largely built in the 1960s and 1970s, exuding an aura of daring, uncom promising design today. It is the French term “brut“, meaning raw or unrefined, that lent its name to this particular architectural phenomenon. Vilified for decades as the step-child of modernism, brutalist architecture is now enjoying an astonishing comeback as the latest discovery among digital trendsetters. As well as fascinating users across social networks, brutal - ism is also inspiring contemporary architecture. Large- scale sculptural forms, coarsely finished materials and floor plans that defy convention merge with contemporary design to generate enthralling new creations. This book offers a sophisticated overview of post-war and contemporary brutalist buildings and of the relationship – in ap pearance and design, in the grand concepts and the small est details – between brutalism today and its ancestors.
