Indefensible Space: The Architecture of the National Insecurity State
November 20, 2007
A panel discussion on Indefensible Space: The Architecture of the National Insecurity State, a new book edited by Michael Sorkin that examines how post-9/11 paranoia and demands for security are, paradoxically, leading to ever more insecurity, as physical barriers, increased surveillance, and anxiety erode public space. Part 2 of 4: Teddy Cruz

Teddy Cruz is an architect and founding principal of the San Diego based practice, estudio teddy cruz. His work dwells at the border between San Diego and Tijuana, Mexico, inspiring a practice and pedagogy that emerges out of the particularities of this bicultural territory and the integration of theoretical research and design production. His work and writing is widely published and he is recipient of a Rome Prize, a P/A Award, the Robert Taylor Teaching Award from the ACSA, numerous AIA Honor Awards, and was named an “Emerging Voice” by the Architectural League in 2005.
