Ready to jet-set around the world of mass timber construction from the comfort of your own home? Strap in and join us as we explore the latest, most exciting developments in the realm of eco-friendly architecture and design. We kick off our journey in Northern Europe, witnessing the birth of a green, biodiversity-focused educational facility spearheaded by Henning Larsen and WSP for the Oslo City Education Authority. This awe-inspiring structure, complete with wooden hybrid structures and green facades, promises to be a haven for learning. Next, we fly over to Perth, where the city council has just greenlit the construction of the world's tallest timber building. But our trip doesn't end there. We zoom over to New York, where the Architecture Research Office (ARO) has unveiled plans for an amazing cultural center at the Olana State Historic Site. Finally, we touch down in Ukraine, where Shigeru Ban's humanitarian architecture project uses mass timber products for a surgical wing building, supporting both local industry and the EU's commitment to sustainable building practices.
