Since 1969 he has headed a multi-disciplinary practice that includes buildings, public spaces, environmental art works, landscapes, master plans, interiors, video productions, graphics, and product designs. Educated at Syracuse University, he is the founder of SITE in 1970, a New York City based art/architecture practice. The main focus of his work is on aesthetic, sociological and environmental concerns in the building arts. As the studio’s continuing President and Creative Director, he has designed and built more than one hundred and fifty architectural projects in the USA, Italy, France, England, Austria, Canada, Spain, Qatar, Turkey, Dubai, China and Japan. Professor Wines has delivered lectures at eight hundred colleges, universities and professional conferences in fifty-two countries and written seven books - including DE-ARCHITECTURE (Rizzoli) 1987 and GREEN ARCHITECTURE (Taschen) 2000. In addition, there have been twenty-two monographic books and museum catalogues published on his drawings and projects for SITE.
