Perhaps I phrased it badly.

No, not at all. My comment wasn't dismissive of your post at all. I just was intrigued by the paradox of fashion and brutalism.

If there was any critique in my comment is more directed at the source you quoted. It's really forcing the Corbusier angle a bit too much, in my honest opinion. It's late brutalism, with a bit too much beatification going on to be true to the style.

I do like the building a lot and it's intriguing to see the headway they made with concrete casting to archieve the rounder shapes.
