On Site review issue 8 2002 publisher
The Association for Non-Profit Architectural Fieldwork (Alberta) guest editors Deborah Asher Barnstone Robert Barnstone editor Stephanie White contributors
welcome to issue 8, Architecture and Sewing. Our guest editors are Deborah Ascher Barnstone and Robert Barnstone, who wrote in On|Site 5 about their portable dining room, called a sukkah . for harvest workers in Indiana. It was an elegant structure made of many hundreds of thin wood strips nailed to make a series of shifting screens, panels and ribs. More of their work can be seen here, in this issue – all with the same sensibility where thinness, fragility and provisionality combine to made robust structures. We encourage you to send us your comments on this issue, and to continue to send us news of interesting work in your region that we can include in future issues.
