Brutalism architecture, initially prevailed during post-industrial era, is the pinnacle of a “concrete jungle”. They left a permanent mark in the society. Till this day, we can still feel their influence. Soaked in the large concrete panels is the old-school wonder in civil engineering during a time when buildings were designed without the aid of powerful computers. The buildings themselves are heavy, monolithic, and often present a monumental quality.
The wanderer is a fashion tale inspired by the stresses the millennial, me included, nowadays faces. The story sets in the heart of one brutalism building, in which the large concrete panels form a maze-like setting that traps the protagonist, keep him wandering. In a space that once inspired the previous generation, the younger generation is shadowed and lost, but eventually we will stand tall and find our place.
