Estudio Teddy Cruz is a forward thinking architecture firm, more concerned with building communities than simply building. Teddy Cruz's practice is rooted in the social and economic conditions of the trans-border territory between San Diego, California and Tijuana, Mexico. Artkrush editor Paul Laster recently spoke to Cruz about his social concerns and his projects currently on view from New York to Venice.

WiMBY

Over the last six years WiMBY! has developed and implemented a series of varied projects on the basis of a creative analysis of Hoogvliet. In so doing, its underlying conviction was that the best and most inspiring basis for the future of this postwar town was to enhance, renew and make the best use of HoogvlietÕs existing characteristics and qualities, both physical and social. The projects WiMBY! undertook ranged from experimental buildings and small-scale projects to joint ventures in the fields of architecture, urban planning, education, art and socio-cultural projects.
