Heartbrut & Carte Brute features in BZ Basel (print & online), Beobachter Magazin (No 15/21, print)

Pretty Brutal – and Brutally Beautiful / Concrete Eye-Catcher

HEARTBRUT, CARTE BRUTE and Swiss Brutalism keep making news

Switzerland’s concrete heritage continues to attract attention with two prestigious print titles dedicating considerable column inches in its favour: BZ BASEL (22.5) has featured the region’s many brutalist treasures in a carefully researched, and generously-illustrated double page. The Swiss journalism institution BEOBACHTER Magazin, meanwhile, shines a light on the history of the “Regina”, a still largely unknown brutalist department store dating from 1965. It boasts strong eye-catching appeal and admirable perseverance: not only has the Regina managed to defend its place in the high street of Dietikon (Canton Zurich),  but it also escaped the wrecking ball – with the kind help of Heimatschutz Zürich.
