Embraced Wood Germany
Building with unprocessed reclaimed timber
Embraced Wood creates long-span beams from unprocessed reclaimed timber pieces using only natural fibers and clay. The computationally-informed design and robotic fabrication workflow can help engineers to design site-specific beams for building extensions or new multi-story timber construction without having to accommodate the architectural design to available material stock. Embraced Wood offers a carbon-conscious design and fabrication process that is competitive to that of other timber systems and greatly expands the intake of reclaimed timber for construction.
