Brutalist Plants Art Prints. Architecture Meets Nature.
The intersection of raw, imposing concrete structures and untamed greenery has sparked a global design movement known as Eco-Brutalism. This aesthetic is celebrated in the popular photobook Brutalist Plants by Olivia Broome (published by Hoxton Mini Press), which explores how nature softens, reclaims, and coexists with harsh architectural lines.
The images featured in the book lend themselves perfectly to graphic design and geometric illustrations. Olivia partnered with me to create gorgeous art prints based on brutalist buildings in France, Spain, and her home country, Switzerland.
These vibrant prints can be displayed on their own or as a set of three.
What Is Brutalist Architecture?
Brutalist architecture is a modernist style that emerged in the mid-20th century, characterised by exposed concrete, strong geometric forms, and a focus on functional design. The term comes from the French “béton brut”, meaning raw concrete, a defining feature of many Brutalist buildings in Europe.
