Premise
Human movement towards city areas has set off a huge shift of resources pooling in building construction around the world. This propels not only architects, but entire humankind to find sustainable ways to re-analyze construction in its life cycle and finding means to make it greener through its life.

No matter how much we hide, the construction sector is answerable for half of the world’s CO2 discharge. RCC based construction generates so much carbon not only while manufacturing, but it is very tough to discard construction waste post its lifecycle.

Can alternative natural origin ma­terials, for example, wood, can help change the course of global warming caused by excessive construction? Can wood be the real game-changer we had been always looking for?

Advantages
Mass timber construction is fast, cost-efficient, it implicates less construction traffic and offers a high variety of solutions to complex design challenges. While it may not seem the most obvious choice for large-scale building, modern treating methods are opening new gateways to bring this material into the mainstream.

Pre-fabrication and technological advancement are reshaping the contemporary building typologies. and new spatial configuration can be developed for the future of the urban context.

The fact that timber is quite strong and weighs less than other construction materials, as well as that showcases sustainable and renewable characteristics, brings great opportunity for innovation.

With its acoustic and insulation properties, timber is an excellent material for energy efficient passive houses.

Mass timber structural performance and its lighter carbon footprint can be the answer to the future of wood architecture and the environmental impacts of construction.
