All Postwar and Late Modern Architecture

Modern architecture's continuation and hardening after the Second World War, exemplified by Brutalism's frank display of raw concrete and structural mass as the era's defining aesthetic statement. Belongs here: any named style whose primary period is the postwar decades and which continues, rather than founds or rejects, the modern movement's structural honesty. Does not belong here: the movements that explicitly react against modernism's perceived failures, grouped under Postmodern and Contemporary Architecture.
