| Popis: | This paper is a take on contemporary works in wood seen from two different points of view: academic and professional. The knowledge about digital wood developed at different universities through Digital Fabri- cation Laboratories and by teaching architecture has proved to be effective but with certain limitations when used for real constructions. In fact, translating the freedom of building temporary architectures —which usually is one of the prerogatives of teaching architecture during design studio or workshops— into wood architecture that respect all the constraints of real construction is a challenge. Parametric design is essential to control process and final output. However, there are several aspects such as building codes, costs, certifi- cations, durability and expertise which have a strong impact on the feasibility and final output of digital wood architecture. The paper shows several experiences where innovative ideas developed through research have been applied both to temporary pavilions and real constructions in Japan, Italy and France. Two tea houses, a pavilion for archeologists, a façade for a recreational youth center, a modular furniture system cus- tomisable online and the interior design of the media library of the Quai Branly Museum in Paris will be dis- cussed in the paper. Integrating research into practice is a way to try to make better buildings, that are ap- propriate to their users, clients, context and time. info:eu-repo/semantics/inPress |
