What we're seeing: 'Bunkers, Brutalism and Bloodymindedness' on BBC Four

Unité d'Habitation in Marseille, by Le Corbusier

Sunday 21:00
BBC Four

This is the second of a two-part documentary in which Jonathan Meades makes the case for 20th-century concrete Brutalist architecture, and its growing popularity.

This episode focuses on the massive influence of Le Corbusier’s post-war work. Meades sets out to reclaim the reputation of buildings that, once much maligned, he argues stood for optimism and grandeur.
