“Wotruba Church” Fritz Wotruba, sculptor; Fritz Mayr, architect.Located on a hill in Mauer, on the outskirts of Vienna, the Wotruba Church was the culmination of sculptor Fritz Wotruba’s life (the project’s architect, Fritz G. Mayr, is often forgotten). Constructed in the mid-1970s, Mayr completed the project one year after Wotruba’s death, enlarging the artist’s clay model to create a functional walk-in concrete sculpture. The result is a chaotic brutalist ensemble that toys with the boundaries between art and architecture.

“Kilden Performing Arts Centre”, Designed by Finnish architects ALA.The undulating oak underbelly of four auditoriums bursts through the glazed facade of this concert hall in Kristiansand, Norway.
The urban character of the new theatre- and concert hall building will have a major impact on the cultural identity of the city of Kristiansand and the whole region. The architectural expression has to be instantly recognisable and unique.

This apartment building built in Guiyang City is called the Canned Food Apartment because its exterior resembles a stack of cans. This apartment building, consisting of a total of four buildings with 40 floors, is said to have been built with a unique terrace structure so that each household can have its own garden. This idea was conceived as eco-friendly elements became popular, and it is evaluated as an eco-friendly apartment building.#architecture #brutalistdesign #concrete #brutalism #brutalism #brutalismfriday#concreteconstruction #architecturalphotography

“Miniatures”, Frank Kunert
Model maker and photographer Frank Kunert explores the "absurdity of life" through his meticulous architectural models with a twist.
The German artist's handmade miniatures recreate seemingly normal scenes that, upon further inspection, reveal a surreal scenario.#utilitarianarchitecture #concrete #brutalism #brutalism #brutalismfriday #brutalisticarchitecture #architecture #concreteconstruction

“Monument to the Resistance”, by Paolo Castelli (1967-1968), Macerata, Italy [Pic: Roberto Conte (2021)]
Located in central Italy, this 1960s monument commemorates the local resistance movement that fought against Nazism and Fascism during World War two.
Built in the same year of the Apollo 11 mission on the Moon, the monument connects the craters of the war fields of the past with the lunar crater of the future. The design implies the meaning of a changing era of humanity, from bomb craters to lunar craters, from the era of fighting for peace to the era of developing science, from past history to future projections.

“The Monitor Building at Beckton Sewage Treatment Works”
It wasn’t until the Great Stink of 1858 – a period of a few months in which hot weather made the stench of human waste and effluent in the Thames unbearable – that the government decided to work on a permanent and adequate underground sewerage system. In 1864, Joseph Bazalgette drew up a plan to construct a total of 1,182 miles of mains and street sewers to divert wastewater to the outskirts of London.
The Monitor Building at Beckton STW was commissioned in 1967 and designed by architects at the Public Health Engineering Department. The most striking aspect of its design are the four legs which support its raised structure, giving it the appearance of a large concrete quadruped walking across the works.

“Institut für Hygiene und Mikrobiologie” Fehling+Gogel, Berlin, 1966–74
Great importance was placed on the quality of the exposed concrete of the building shell. In order to obtain soft curves and a fine surface structure, attention was paid to particularly precise execution of the board formwork. This resulted in a consistent exposed concrete building that is unique in Berlin in such careful execution. The design responds to the neighborhood by gradually increasing the building masses and creating a five-story office and laboratory block with the front facing the old village center.

“Johannes XXIII Church”, Heinz Buchmann and Josef Rikus, 1968, Cologne
The Johannes XXIII church inspires mixed feelings as ugly structure or masterpiece. While the exterior construction is dominated by concrete, the interior is much more complex, with coloured glass windows dipping the church in warm light. A rare example of unusual Catholic architecture, this is well worth a visit.

“Maunsell Army Forts”, Guy Maunsell, Thames Estuary, 1942
Part of the Thames Estuary defense network, the anti-aircraft defense consisted of a cluster of seven stilted buildings surrounding a central command tower. Operational, catwalks connected the buildings. They were built on land and then transported to their watery homes. Originally there were three of these forts, but only two are left standing: the Redsands Fort and the Shivering Sands Fort.

“Wotruba Church”, Mayer, Vienna Fritz Wotruba/Fritz Gerhard Mayr, 1964
An iconic brutalist design, created from 152 concrete blocks whose weight ranges from 1.8 to 141 tons. The idea of a church was first conceived by Fritz Wotruba in 1964 and the location was chosen separately, a relevant point as the current site was formerly home to Nazi barracks.
Wotruba, a sculptor attributed his inspiration for the church on his visit to Chartres Cathedral in France. The architect, Mayr, worked with Fritz Wotruba to bring his extraordinary sculptural brutalist design to life, creating a space that is equally a sacred space and a living sculptural tribute to Wotruba, who died before the project was completed.

“North Christian Church” Eero Saarinen, 1959, Columbia, Indiana.
Saarinen was inspired by the steep steps at Angkor Wat and Borobudur and traditions that make a visitor interact with the architecture and gives a sense of magnanimity while entering the church. The odyssey from the exterior to interior is organically augmented to give worshippers a spiritual experience.
The use of earthy materials, grey slate floors, dark mahogany pews to the spirited formal geometries, the architecture strives to create a pious ambiance that is intimate and subliminal. The decompression of the chamber, grey slate floors, dark mahogany pews, and eerie natural lighting induce a sense of awe in the visitor.#1950s #utilitarianarchitecture #concrete #brutalism #brutalism #brutalismfriday #brutalisticarchitecture #architecture #concreteconstruction
