After watching Brutalist, I just have to pin the works of the most brutalist architect of the 20th century—Louis Kahn—on my map.
The House of the Parliament of Bangladesh, located in Dhaka.
This masterpiece, also known as the Jatiyo Sangsad Bhaban, is one of Kahn’s most famous works. Completed in 1982, it’s a striking example of monumental brutalism, with massive geometric forms, bold concrete surfaces, and an almost spiritual use of light and space. The building’s deep recesses and intricate voids allow natural light to shape the interior, creating a sense of harmony and timelessness.
