Munger is a real proponent of Chinese-style capitalism and generally praises the idea of social-credit systems.
It only makes sense that his architecture style would also favor brutalism. He probably repurposed some of the designs of the old commie-blocks from eastern europe.

China inprisons successful entrepreneurs and takes away their property. The concept of private property in China is there just to show. So no, Munger is far from being a real proponent of a Chinese-style capitalism.
- everyone 5y agoDo you know what brutalism means in architecture? It means exposed concrete, Munger's design is not brutalism. Also what "commie-blocks from eastern europe" are you referencing? I can't think of any eastern european apartment buildings that resemble this design in any way. (They tend to have windows)
