Brutalism Architecture Exhibition

Brutalist Architecture emerged in the 1950s and was primely adopted in Great Britain, and most focused around London. It was new and exciting and captured the post-war ideas of progress, fascination with new materials and a rejection of the past. Many of these buildings and developments have been viewed as failures for contemporary societies to live in, but the Barbican Estate is a notable exception. This exhibition looks at the history, development and future of this architectural style and as it is taking place within the Barbican Estate is a unique chance to focus visitors attention around this subject. The purpose of this project was to develop a visual identity for this exhibition that can be used and adapted across all communications to promote, communicate and engage potential audiences who know of but are not experts about architecture.
