It seems to me that there is a sort of confounding of prefabricated panel buildings as brutalism. In the picture examples we have several examples of these sorts of prefab panel buildings (known in German as Plattenbauten), yet I would argue that these are separate from Brutalism. Whilst they do use concrete, I'd say they are quite distinct as an architectural phenomenon from Brutalism. I'd say Park Hill Estate however is Brutalist whilst the buildings in Talnakh aren't. What do we think? [[Special:Contributions/194.230.148.211|194.230.148.211]] ([[User talk:194.230.148.211|talk]]) 11:38, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 
== on university campuses : add information on Puaka-James Hight Building ==
== Prefab buildings as brutalism? ==
 
There should be some added information or a picture on the [[Puaka–James Hight Building]] at [[University of Canterbury]]. As it has significant importance in the southern hemisphere, and New Zealand. As well it is a surely to be one of the taller brutalist buildings on University campuses.

The whole article is basically about new brutalism, not brutalism. You wouldn't make an article about classical and only talk about neo classical would you?... [[User:Esteban Outeiral Dias|Esteban Outeiral Dias]] ([[User talk:Esteban Outeiral Dias|talk]]) 12:00, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
 
:The article is about the architectural style commonly known in English as brutalism, which was occasionally referred to historically as 'new brutalism'. But if someone talks about brutalism, this is what they are taking about. There are suggestions that "new brutalism" may have started as a joke (paralleling the various neo- movements) as there is no recognised 'old brutalism'.[https://www.spiked-online.com/2016/02/25/brutalism-and-the-word-was-made-concrete/] [[User:Robminchin|Robminchin]] ([[User talk:Robminchin|talk]]) 15:19, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
