Archstorming UNBUILD THE WALL, Honorable Mention
ACROSS | CRUZAR is a proposal to reprogram and repurpose the US / Mexico border wall. Serving before as only a separator and a threshold, ACROSS | CRUZAR transforms the wall into a social and cultural hub and stretches the footprint of the border into a formal, bi-national territory for Ambos Nogales, where people sharing the same culture from either side of the frontera can exchange ideas, goods, and community.
Our criteria for border architecture reimagines the frontera to be transparent, welcoming, public, organic, flexible, adaptive, porous, and even ethereal for the residents of this region. Perimeter immigration checkpoints allow residents from one side of the geopolitical border wishing to visit those from the other side do so easily, without officially crossing borders. The modular structure - flexible in all three dimensions - repurposes steel in a sustainable and economical process from the existing wall deconstructed. The construction system is scalable, assembling into different spatial configurations and a spectrum of more-open to more-dense spaces in the wall. The skeleton of the structure allows visitors to either occupy, climb, or rest on it while giving the interior ample space to overcome legal barriers with community programming that responds to and enhances the local economies and rich shared culture in the sister border towns of Nogales.
