In a world that is becoming increasingly minimalist, natural materials have predictably developed a whole new appeal. This edition brings together a selection of thirty recently completed buildings featuring wood as the material of choice. Author Naomi Strungo argues convincingly through five enlightening chapters that wood will again be the next major trend in architecture. This book proves the point. Staggeringly beautiful photographic spreads show how each of the buildings has its own special character, and in the process we observe the work of a generation of contemporary architects fascinated by this theme. Also noted are the technological advances that have enhanced wood as a building material and ingenious ways of 'green thinking' are put forth. New Wood Architecture will help define the state of building in wood today.
