Yes, but "Brutalism" does not seem a nice name, how about
"literate" web design?
I am using a stripped down design for e-learning. With this I replace
the usual collection of dozens (in some chases hundreds) of PDF,
Powerpoint and Word documents for a course with one HTML e-book. The
e-book uses basic HTML markup so it takes on the style of the
institution. This is then linked from a short overview web page in the
Learning Management System, to show the student which chapter to read,
when. The e-book is also able to be printed as a conventional paper
book: http://www.tomw.net.au/technology/it/accessible_ebooks/
I applied this to the Australian Computer Society's "New Technology
Alignment" (NTA) on-line postgraduate course last year. The course was
designed by Professor Doug Grant. I kept the videos he recorded for it,
but converted his weekly PDF documents in a HTML e-book. The course
starts again 19 June:
