This is really about how you define beauty. One group of Mexican architects suggest building a pink wall. It's certainly distinctive, and looks like something Barbie might approve if she were to share Trump's politics. An international competition has been held looking into the question of the wall, and its joint winning entries took very different approaches. The Second Wall Of America is an approach that aims to bring irrigation to an arid region, and is probably not the kind of approach that Trump and his supporters envisage. The Inflato Border concept proposes inflatable bubbles which will function as natural places for social interaction. Second prize is similarly unhelpful to the concept of keeping people apart, a Border Park designed to be a place where people can engage across borders. Third place once again fails to meet the brief. Across is again geared up for collaboration and cooperation between people.
