Yeah, when there is some real design work, rather than just big concrete block, brutalism can look very cool. However most places seemed to want to just go with dismal box as an aesthetic.

Nah I love big box brutalism. Gimme gimme gimme all those long, labyrinthine, resource-conscious angular concrete buildings. Just looking at my campus's inexplicably brutalist administrations office was my favorite part of university

I mean, there has to be someone that gets turned on by ugly, nothing wrong with that. Most people don't like it though.
