People have lived and worked in wooden buildings since Neolithic times. Over the centuries, architects have used it to design buildings as diverse as tree houses, Tudor mansions, Japanese temples and religious edifices.
This book takes you on a world tour of some of the finest architectural achievements in wood, with 170 buildings erected over the last millennium, including some by Le Corbusier, Kengo Kuma, Renzo Piano, Snøhetta and Peter Zumthor. Organised by theme, such as texture, juxtaposition or light, it highlights the many uses and unique qualities of wood.
