Brutalism: The Beauty of Breaking the Rules
Brutalism in web design rejects perfection for authenticity. Stark grids, raw type, and honest structure create interfaces that feel human, intentional, and impossible to ignore. Break the rules, on purpose.




Hey guys,
Thank you for the nice words about vlourenco.com
It’s a honor to have such great design critiques looking at my work. I really appreciate it 🙂
I wish you a happy and successful 2009!
Hey guys, great job! I like the idea of doing a video podcast reviewing some Web sites. If nothing more, just watching someone else using the Web site is a great resource. It really shows the designers how the visitors use their Web site, almost like a free usability test. Great job, I hope to see more!
