In the 1920s and 1930s, Art Deco worked well in cold cities like NYC, Chicago, and even some European cities. I think it is a bit unfair when people associate modernism solely with Brutalism because that was just one small part of Modernism. Brutalism also had the communist connection as you mention. The examples I posted earlier in thread of Googie style are the other end of the spectrum, capitalism and new frontier experimentalism.
