Living in wood : architecture & interior design / Chris van Uffelen. 1st edition. Salenstein : Braun, 2017. 288 pages : chiefly color illustrations, plans ; 29 cm Includes index. An important material for many centuries and used in countless diverse ways before being almost despised for a long time in the modern era, wood has now become a source of fascination and inspiration in contemporary architecture. The sustainable and locally available building material is easy to process, structurally very powerful and extremely simple to combine with other materials. It insulates against heat as well as cold, but is also breathable ? excellent qualities for a pleasant and healthy interior climate.0Along with these practical considerations, it is the unlimited abundance of creative possibilities that accounts for the ever-growing popularity of residential dwellings made of wood. From one-story bungalows to multi-story dwellings, timber houses are at the forefront of the development of contemporary architecture and design. This volume presents the huge creative diversity of individual solutions from across the globe. Abstracts in German. Building, Wooden. Wooden-frame buildings. Architecture, Domestic 20th century.
