The revaluation of certain architecture qualified as brutalist is generating areconciliation with this movement. For this reason, demolitionist policiesare being abandoned, changing to patrimonial attitudes. The special characteristics of the movement, distinguished by an intense expressivenessand sincerity of material, converge with a large part of industrial buildings.View structure, materials “as found” and projection of their structural andconstructive reality. A theoretical reflection on the criteria of interventionand / or conservation is necessary. Brutalism material philosophy takes ongreat relevance, and this aspect has be carefully taken care of in new interventions and in techniques of preserving. This paradigm must be considered as the main idea in rehabilitation, intervention or conservation project, because a wrong decision, a priori insignificant, a priori insignificantor of little importance, can destroy the conceptual sense of the building.The subject is extended beyond the technical management of matter, theinterpretation of the original criteria of its application must be considered,taking decisions of different nature but congruent with the germinal paradigms, without previous inclination towards intervention or conservationcriteria. Although industrial and brutalist buildings have similar characteristics, as far as the use of materials is concerned. But motivations are completely different, so the criteria for intervention are also different. The LeCorbusier`s paradigm is proposed by the Unité d`Habitation de Marseille(1946-1952) establishing some premises of the meaning of the buildingand its materiality. It´s an interpretation of the "brut", and it is the mainobjective of the conception of the building. However, creative processes ofindustrial architecture arise from functional and economic motivations,which fit other aesthetic and spatial that expand its meaning
