These zines were the prompt for our recent BRUTAL Bristol exhibition. Buy them while you can!

More people visited than we hoped and our 4 walks sold out demonstrating how many people are interested in the city’s post-war architecture.
Back in stock for a limited time. After a very successful exhibition of BRUTAL Bristol I have decided to run a few more zines for those that missed out 👇

The Thursday 11.30 tour is almost sold out. Three places left.
We’ve added another tour of Broadmead Baptist Church. The last one sold out rapidly so be quick if you’d like to see inside this recently listed church above the shops.

My pals @tom8enjamin.bsky.social and @eberlin.co.uk are putting on an exhibition about brutalist buildings in Bristol next week. I wrote a couple of things to help promote it, including this piece about brutalist car parks.

'Fascinating textures and abstract forms make car parks so interesting'
Multi-storey car parks might not seem exciting at first glance but they're often striking examples of bold brutalist architecture

I spent last night writing about car parks as part of the PR for an exhibition on brutalist buildings in Bristol that's happening in October. We do have some interesting ones. This one, on Rupert Street, is from 1960 and was designed by Swiss architect Rudolph Jelinek-Karl.
