March 3rd, 2017

This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.

Blue Crow Media’s latest addition to their architectural city maps focuses on Paris, highlighting the most striking examples of Brutalist architecture in the city.

In his introduction to the map, Robin Wilson asserts that, ‘unlike the brutalist legacy of other European capitals, the brutalism of Paris did not manifest many cultural buildings of the city centre’. Instead, the map highlights a number of spectacular, but often overlooked, residential, administrative and educational buildings offering an alternative tour of the city’s architectural landmarks.
