SITE architectural records and James Wines papers, 1970-2017 82 Linear Feet
This collection documents the projects and activities of SITE, an architecture and environmental design firm founded in 1970 by James Wines, with material dating from the early 1970s to 2017 (bulk 1990s). The collection also includes a small selection of James Wines' papers. The SITE records include project files, drawings and sketches, photographic material, including a significant portion of SITE's slide collection, and marketing, exhibition and office records. Many of the project files document SITE's Green Architecture phase of the 1990s and more recent projects, including lesser known commercial work, such as restaurants and coffee shops. Much of this material relates to projects which have not been widely published, and reveals the breadth of the firm's practice beyond the major projects for which they are known. Many of the photographs and slides document the construction of SITE's experimental projects from the 1970s and 1980s. James Wines' papers include writings, lectures, research notes, limited correspondence, business plans, grant proposals, and documents related to publications, exhibitions, product design, and education projects.
