EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the exterior of Newcastle Civic Centre, a prominent example of Brutalist architecture in the heart of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England. Designed by James O. Davies and constructed between 1956 and 1965, this iconic building is a testament to the post-war modernist ethos that prioritized functionality and durability. The Civic Centre, located on St Mary's Place, is a listed Grade II* building, recognized for its special historical and architectural interest. The design features bold, unadorned concrete surfaces, clean lines, and large expanses of glass, which allow ample natural light to filter in. The building's brutalist style, characterized by its raw, unapologetic use of concrete, was a popular architectural trend in the mid-20th century. The Civic Centre's design was influenced by the modernist movement, which emphasized the importance of creating functional, efficient spaces for the benefit of the community. The building houses various civic functions, including the city council chambers, the central library, and the law courts. Despite its controversial reputation among some, the Newcastle Civic Centre remains an important part of the city's architectural heritage. Its bold design and innovative use of materials continue to inspire and intrigue visitors and locals alike. This photograph, taken by James O. Davies for Historic England, offers a unique perspective on this iconic building and its enduring presence in Newcastle's urban landscape.
