Brutal Scotland - Simon Phipps Many of the buildings that were constructed in Scotland during the dynamic, socially motivated period of post-war architecture have now been repurpos ed, pulled down or left to slowly decay. But others still serve their community. Their impact is beautifully and boldly visible in Phipps’ photographs. From the Post Office of Inverness to the Gala Fairydean Rovers Football Club stand in Galashiels, these stadiums and homes, leisure centres and fire stations, churches and libraries, were built for a people and nation in flux, the architects envisioning a new era of opportunity.
