James Wines is a larger-than-life character whose work cuts a swathe through modern architecture. Since 1970, when he founded SITE, the highly regarded architecture and environmental arts organisation based in New York, he and his practice have led the way in progressing a more socially and environmentally responsive architecture. Early work from the office includes iconic structures such as the Notch Project (1977), Sacramento, California. Nowadays, SITE offers a wide range of design services such as buildings, landscapes, public spaces, interiors, graphics and industrial products. This new addition to IMAGES' Master Architect Series offers a valuable insight into SITE's creative approach and teamwork, as it documents some of the studio's most outstanding projects.
