MASSIV

The story of brutalism reminds us that once upon a time, there was disciplinary consensus. In retrospect, this consensus appears a peculiar convergence between ethics and aesthetics, during which truth in materials and the question of monumentality dominated the discipline no matter one’s ideological bent, a time when do-gooders and designers held certain goals in common. Successful or not, the results of this peculiar convergence are all around us, reminders that we could all use an attitude adjustment.

AS62 is not BA, but was designed and created by ideals within the concept and the use of materials I so deeply follow from Brutalist Architecture, I feel this is an honest project, and when I say honest I mean the project itself speaks out its true nature revealing her materials.

Ive always been a sucker for double hight features, concrete walls and ceilings, Steal Beams and Rusted details on every possible mark, this project includes every one of them.
