    Dwarves still have decoration, both in their craft and in their style. Braids, carving, etc. Brutalism does not have the intricate design dwarves seem to. It’s all big and blocky.

      It depends a lot on your setting, obviously, but dwarves are specifically known for going above and beyond on craftsmanship.

        Yeah, at least for the dwarves that I imagine they’re not just about efficiency and quality but they really want things to look interesting and intricate. (Not that brutalism can’t be interesting but it is not finely detailed/intricate like dwarf work.)
