Description
Wood is having a great renaissance in global architecture. How has this elemental material become so popular, from luxury hot spring buildings to modern urban renewal plans? With 100 projects from Chile to China, this global survey explores the technical, environmental, and sensory elements that have inspired a return to timber.
“From a functional tree house to inspired restaurants, this collection instructs on the ecology of wooden construction, with plenty of eye candy for architecture enthusiasts.”
Philip Jodidio studied art history and economics at Harvard and edited Connaissance des Arts for over 20 years. His TASCHEN books include the Architecture Now! series and monographs on numerous major architects, including Norman Foster, Tadao Ando, Renzo Piano, Jean Nouvel, and Zaha Hadid.
