Welcome to Our Buildings, Our Selves: Humanity in Architecture, a monthly podcast produced by Common Edge, the Connecticut Architecture Foundation, the Connecticut AIA, and Bridgeport community radio station WPKN 89.5 FM.
In a fantastic conversation, James Wines talks about his 70 years in creation. More than architecture, Wines designed SITE as a studio that addressed the culture as the context for our common values. THrough scores of buildings, exhibits, writings and lectures, James Wines defined how humanity interacts with design, and in his conversation with Dio Dickinson and Martin Pederson, he describes how environmental realities became a centerpoint in our future, and how our common future meant that design had to lead the way to understanding and hope. A remarkable podcast that touches on an incredible career.
