Aside from the great monumental works of Western architecture, in which stone was used to create large, vaulted structures, the most commonly chosen material to cover space was solid wood. Today, wood is mostly used in projects with limited structural requirements and scale. Yet the material is also experiencing a breakthrough in the field of construction, with its superior sustainability credentials when compared to steel or reinforced concrete. New science and technology allows wood to transcend the properties and features of traditional building. Featured in this issue are exemplary projects by Kengo Kuma, Holzer Kobler Architekturen, Henning Larsen, EFFEKT, and others.
