Imagine a border wall between the U.S. and Mexico not as a barrier, but as a piece of architecture that brings people together. That's what architect Ronald Rael does in his new book, Borderwall as Architecture: A Manifesto for the U.S.-Mexico Boundary . 'The wall suggests a kind of duality,' says Rael. 'That there's one side or another. But I think it's reductive to think about the borderlands in that way. It's much more of a gradient than it is two sides.' Rael is an associate professor of architecture in the College of Environmental Design at UC Berkeley.
