Bobigny’s brutalist Mairie. Completed in the ea Bobigny’s brutalist Mairie.  Completed in the early 1970s by architects Marius Depont and Michel Holley, the Town Hall of Bobigny is a powerful example of French brutalist architecture, a bold statement in béton brut. Built during a time of sweeping urban change in France, the building was a physical expression of a new kind of civic life. The building was (and still is) where the town’s administrative work gets done. But at the time it was built, in the early 1970s, it also had another job: to anchor a growing suburb. Its raised base, open forecourt, and bold shape were meant to make it stand out, to give the area something clearly public, clearly visible, and built to last.

For a place like Bobigny, often left out of the spotlight, this was a strong statement demanding attention, even if not everyone liked how it looked. Love it or hate it, brutalism asks us to look and think. Photo with thanks to @modarchitecture Want to get a sense of the place nip over to our website Greyscape.com then go to Bobigny in locations!
