We've now launched our Features section in which we're hosting a number of guest contributors.  With a couple to start with, we've already got a number of new guests lined up and will be launching a series of BRUTALISM:ONLINE features this year.  We've been blown away by the contributions we've received thus far and the passion we've seen for Brutalist architecture from all corners of the globe!

If you'd like to be a guest contributor, please get in touch!  We're looking for rich content - stunning photos, personal stories or insightful articles on anything Brutalism-related.

Thanks to everyone who has supported us thus far; we've still got a long way to go with only around 350 brutalist buildings documented to-date, so please do get in touch if you have anything whatsoever to contribute - even if it's just the name of a building we don't have listed yet.

Watch this space for much more coming soon!

All the best

We've now been live for just over a week and whilst we figured we'd stir up some interest from like-minded Brutalism obsessives like ourselves, we are truly astounded by the amount of engagement we've had, including many many offers of contribution to the site.  This is absolute music to our ears; when setting about this project we knew it would be a huge job and that we'd want to find others to help us, but we're now finding ourselves planning and designing whole new areas of the site to house the volume and diversity of the content we're being offered.

So here it is: BRUTALISM:ONLINE, our new baby. After numerous late nights and many many hours of grafting to get the site up and running, we're now faced with the prospect that it has really only just begun.  We know that we probably don't even have 1% of the content that we'd like to have; we know that we're going to get bombarded with content, photos, info etc and that running this place is probably going to take up every last ounce of precious spare time we didn't have left in the first place.

Despite all of that, as we sit back and survey what we've created, we're pretty happy.  We can't wait to start really building up the site with glorious Brutalist content, to attempt to become a major, central resource for Brutalism on the net and develop a buzzy community of like-minded Brutalist obsessives just like ourselves.
