Architectural Style & Design Approach
 one of the earliest known examples of Brutalist architecture
in America is Paul Rudolph's Yale Art and Architecture Building
in New Haven, Connecticut, an imposing, fortress-like building
that juxtaposes masses of textured concrete with layers of
steel-framed glazing.
 Completed in 1963, the building is formed of intersecting
volumes of bush-hammered concrete. Smooth concrete and glass
horizontal elements are supported by a sequence of towers that
protrude above the roof in a series of turret
GEOGRAPHIC & CLIMATIC CONDITION
COORDINATES- 41.3123°N, 72.9240°W
CLIMATE- HUMID CONTINENTAL CLIMATE, WITH COLD WINTERS AND
HOT SUMMERS.
SUMMERS :- HIGH-82F TO 77F, 66F TO 60F
WINTERS :- HIGH-42F TO 37F, LOW-28F TO 23F
PRECIPITATION-The annual average precipitation at New Haven is
52.73 Inches. Rainfall in is fairly evenly distributed throughout the
year. The wettest month of the year is May with an average rainfall of
4.70 Inches.

Like every brutalist buildings, this one retains all the
joints and holes caused by the casting of concrete in place.
Rudolph utilised this as an opportunity to create texture.

Massive piers of

throughout. Heavy
slabs are crossed
by thin slabs.
Spaces inside cross
too and offer
sequences of most
dramatic effects
by unexpected
vistas inside the
building and even

Slabs of ribbed
concrete run in
vertical sections on
the interior and
exterior of
the 11,000-square-
metre building. The
concrete was cast in
place using
corrugated wooden
moulds and bush-
hammered to expose
the aggregate.
Inside, the complex
floor plan is made up
of 37 terraced levels
spaced across seven
main storeys and two
basement floors. Each
level overlooks a
central atrium that
features a sunken pit
and is topped by a
series of skylights,
while narrow
concrete walkways
connect the spaces on
either side of the well.
Arts Library provides additional
classroom and office space, two
lecture theatres, a cafe and a
ground floor library for the
department.
