Photographic Gallery Captures the Rough Brutalism of Toronto's Andrews Building
Toronto-based photographer Ruta Krau has captured stunning photographs of the Andrews Building, one of Canada?s most noted brutalist buildings, and a celebrated part of Toronto's concrete architecture. Designed by John Andrews, architect of Toronto?s iconic CN Tower, the Andrews Building embodies the Modernist ethos of connecting with the surrounding environment, balanced above a ravine and emerging as a stepped pyramid from a natural ridge.

Visible on both the interior and exterior, this texture compliments terra-cotta-colored floor tiles and wood-paneled feature walls.
