Brutalism

Brutalism
This is Tornet. The Tower. It is an 18-story-high rise, currently under construction at the Brandbergen mall in Haninge. Last time I was here, there were no balconies, so I guess that counts as progress! In total, there will be six new buildings here with around 400 apartments. The architect firm is Urban Couture.

So I looked up the Urban Couture guys. I did see that they mentioned recycling building materials, but it wasn't a big thing...as far as I could see. Most modern architecture in cities look brutalist to me. But the balconies are GOOD. I myself have no clue about how to house people, in their great numbers, in responsible fashion.
