SITE (originally also known as Sculpture in the Environment) is an architecture and environmental design firm founded in 1970 by James Wines. Located in the Wall Street area of New York City, the firm aims to unite building design with visual art, landscape, and green technology. In the 1970s, SITE became internationally known for a series of highly unorthodox retail facilities for Best Products. While keeping the basic shape of a simple brick box, SITE gave the exteriors of the buildings an ironic postmodern twist, often suggesting cracks in the brickwork or deforming walls.

Uno de ellos, llamado "Indeterminate Facade building" (edificio de fachada indeterminada), ubicado en Houston (Texas), y que representaba una fachada de ladrillo semiderruida (ver imagen), se convertiría en un icono de la arquitectura de finales de siglo XX. El estudio, al que pertenecen también Michelle Stone y Emilio Sousa, con integrantes pertenecientes a disciplinas artísticas, se especializó en el paisajismo y en el llamado arte ambiental, construyendo edificios de estilo post-moderno y alejados de la ortodoxia arquitectónica, lo que les valió el rechazo de la crítica especializada de la época. Los problemas económicos de la cadena Best provocaron que la obra más representativa de este estudio —la "Indeterminate Facade Building"— fuese eliminada en julio de 2003. (es)

While keeping the basic shape of a simple brick box, SITE gave the exteriors of the buildings an ironic postmodern twist, often suggesting cracks in the brickwork or deforming walls. The severely distressed crumbling walls of the Indeterminate facade near Houston, Texas purportedly “appeared in more books on 20th century architecture than photographs of any other modern structure.” Despite possibly representing "the apex of American Postmodernism," all the BEST facades disappeared or are now unrecognisably transformed.
