Brutalism!! A polarizing architectural discipline, but it's durability is undeniable

I find brutalism beautiful. Wish we could have more of it in my country but solid concrete, especially preformed, performs poorly under shear.

It's gotten so "brutalist" is almost synonymous with "earthquake-prone".
