Sinopsis, these works feature a wide range of different uses of wood in home construction.
Each of the projects is clearly explained by the designers themselves.
All of the examples selected share the highest degree of architectural
quality due to innovative uses of wood as well as the architects’ outspoken
bid for environmentally sustainable construction. Included in this volume
are sophisticated residences, contemporary homes, and small but remarkable
wood-cabins. Outstanding photographs accompany the working plans
and a clear text, to achieve an optimal communication of these buildings’
main features, the materials used and their defining characteristics.
