Brutalist Korea spotlights 11 standout South Korean buildings, from a blocky kindergarten to a structure meant to look like an open book, as part of Paul Tulett’s new book on the country’s modern brutalist architecture.
Here’s a striking image from Brutalist Korea, where Paul Tulett highlights bold “nu-bru” buildings across Seoul and Jeju Island.
@Quelly the “open book” one is such a strong idea, but on Jeju I’d be watching for rust stains and hairline cracks from salty wind getting into the concrete cover.

Yep, Jeju’s salt air will chew up exposed concrete fast, so I’d go with a low‑permeability mix, sharp drip edges, and a breathable silane/siloxane sealer to keep chloride staining down.
