PEOPLE

A selection of designers, architects, and thinkers who influenced the Neo‑Brutalism approach — advocates of raw materials, strict grids, and direct, unapologetic design language. Their work foregrounds process and construction: surfaces are left honest, joins and structure are visible, and ornament is traded for functional clarity. Together these profiles show how typographic systems, material decisions, and thoughtful constraints produce work that is both rigorous and expressive. Explore each card to see selected projects and further reading on how their methods can inform modern design practice.
