The TR2 and TR3 towers in Ljubljana, designed by Edvard Ravnikar. Their distinctive triangular form and exposed concrete structure dominate the Republic Square skyline. The visible concrete texture, a hallmark of Brutalism, gives these office towers, completed in 1976, a raw, monumental aesthetic. Ravnikar's design embodies the ideals of Brutalism: honesty in material use and an emphasis on structural integrity. These towers stand as a testament to a significant period in architectural history, showcasing a powerful and unadorned approach to building design.

The Maltese parliament building built by Renzo Piano (RPBW) in close collaboration with AP Valletta. Originally planned as a museum for the public the corrupt government turned it into their parliament building. Stormy weather as a backdrop before its metaphorical and moral implosion.
