The Site Magazine is the leading independent journal of contemporary architecture, landscape, urbanism, and design in Canada. Through our predecessor, On Site review, The Site Magazine has a 15-year legacy of publishing independent, critical thought on the built environment. Our recent name change acknowledges our shifting value-system on contemporary architecture and urbanism’s relationship to co

ntext: globalized and digitized, speculative and transgressive, “Site” lacking prefix (or ready to accept any offered) is better suited to represent the valuable and often radical investigations, narratives, and scholarship that we publish. Our mission is to provide a platform for interdisciplinary exchange by publishing essays, photography, art, design, journalism, and stories from a variety of contributors with fresh ideas and unique perspectives. By curating each volume around topical themes published semiannually, we intend to stimulate dialogue on the profound questions - ecological, social, political and economic - which affect built culture in the 21st century. The Site Magazine contributes to a global discussion, leveraging the multi-faceted Canadian lens that includes the Canadian perspective abroad. Our accessible and high-quality content brings this discussion into the mainstream, to the breadth of audience it deserves. The Site Magazine is a nonprofit organization sustained through funding by the Canadian Council for the Arts. Along with the generosity of private and corporate sponsors we are able to ensure that The Site Magazine remains editorially independent and can continue to publish critical pieces without agenda or bias.
