functionality Functionality has multiple dimensions. Often brutalist buildings were rather functional on a micro level (e.g. central heating, indoor toilet etc) which was usually better than what they replaced. But on a macro level they were often terrible, e.g. the extreme focus on being car friendly (e.g. you had to cross an 8-lane motorway to meet your frriend in the neighbouring building). The former has nothing to do with brutalist architecture and is now available for all styles of architecture. The latter was a crazy mistake.
