Mamani is a working-class hero, having created a whole new architectural language based on his indigenous heritage, without any formal education in architecture (to great grievance of local academia). But on the other hand, I don't think common people get to live in these. The upper rooms of the distinctive buildings, reserved for the owners, are probably inaccessible except for those who can fund their construction.

Maybe that's why it's so hard to find photos of these buildings in actual use. They're intended to be multi-purpose, though, with the large halls in the lower floors meant for markets and festivals and dance rooms. Here's a couple photos I could find in use like that.
