Conceptual Joining
Conceptual Joining Wood Structures from Detail to Utopia / Holzstrukturen
im Experiment
This book explores experimental approaches to the design and construction
of wooden structures in architecture, while presenting the results of an artistic research project.
Through the
use of digital tools, the anatomy of wood becomes a design-determining principle for spatial structures. The architects and
artists also explore the potential of traditional craftsmanship and derive from this a material-oriented practice. Structures
are not designed here for a specific use, but rather open up various usage possibilities due to their unique spatial and geometric
properties.
The documentation provides insight into an open-ended research process. Guest contributions reflect
on the underlying concepts and thus the future relevance of wood as a building material.
