Angaben aus der Verlagsmeldung Out of the Woods : Architecture and Interiors Built from Wood Humans have been building homes from wood for thousands of years, and yet, in a contemporary world of option and innovation the most primitive resource could in fact be the most pertinent. Stretching back to historic Japanese houses, becoming synonymous with resort accommodation, and intertwining itself in the modern trend of hygge, its tactility and warmth has influenced countless architectural design movements. A safe, sturdy, and sustainable alternative to concrete, architects are rediscovering wood’s universal appeal. Out of the Woods documents their progressive and inspiring creations from the foundations up. • An eclectic range of timber homes, spanning geography, scale, and materiality • Vivid, large-format photography accompanied by enriching features and profiles of leading architects • Insights into wood as a building material, including sourcing and reasons relating to sustainability • Exploration into why timber homes have a demonstrated effect on our wellbeing
