Brutalist Paris is the first thoroughly researched English-language
book about Brutalist architecture in and around Paris. Drawing on over
five years of research, interviews and photography conducted by Robin
Wilson and Nigel Green of Photolanguage, Brutalist Paris represents a
substantial contribution to the study and exploration of Brutalist
architecture. It describes Brutalism's successes and failures in Paris,
from an architecture of monumental urban form to intricately crafted
living spaces; from valued, historic monuments to abandoned ruins.
The book includes seven essays by Dr Robin Wilson, details for more than
50 individual buildings, maps and more than 150 black and white
photographs by Dr Nigel Green.
As featured in Wallpaper, World of Interiors, Design Boom and
elsewhere.
