About Greyscape

Greyscape celebrates Brutalist, Modernist and Constructivist architecture. We bring you a carefully considered edit of the best examples of those designs from around the world.

Greyscape was born out of a passion for under-appreciated 20th Century design. Originally launched in 2016 as a passion project an Instagram account, our audience grew fast, with thousands sharing a similar interest in game-changing buildings. We now have an unrivalled position as a crowdsourced archive of little and well-known architecture. Greyscape is a destination where everyone can learn, share and interact with the very best in Brutalism, Modernist and Constructivist design.

We stand with all our friends, our family and all the people of Ukraine and its democratically elected government.

A place to explore Brutalism, Modernism, Constructivism and the concrete world.

It’s impossible as a major fan of Brutalism not to feature Calvin Seibert’s architectural sandcastles. This one was created in 2017. Click on the link in our bio for more of his fabulous designs.

Shaped like an inverted triangle, two pyramids one within the other, a testimony to the determination of its architects to build something profoundly different, an antidote to social realism. The architects, Štefan Svetkom Štefan Durkovič and Barnabáš Kissling, who won a competition to build it, after the original winning design by Miloš Chorvat was rejected, recalled the development of their vision for the Slovak Radio Building in Bratislava. An early steel building in Bratislava, from the off, the construction did not run smoothly not least because the construction team were simply not sufficiently familiar with the materials. In the Eastern Bloc the architectural landscape was invariably concrete. Design faults quickly appeared and the builders were not motivated to work speedily or with respect for the materials. The architects recall spending weekends ‘cleaning tiles soiled with mortar’. Image Oliver Skukalek @_oli001 Read more on Greyscape.com
