Brutalism is an architectural style popular in the 50s and 60s. Although its stark, muscular style divides opinion, it's being reappraised by some as bold monuments to more hopeful times.

Famous examples include London's Barbican Centre and Trellick Tower and The Met Breur in New York City. Do you have a favourite example of Brutalist architecture? Let us know in the comments.
