Dezeen's latest series questions whether mass timber can break steel and concrete's hold over the construction industry.

Sloppiness and misinformation are threatening to prevent large-scale wood construction from reaching its full potential, argues Hermann Kaufmann – the "grandfather of mass timber" – in this interview.

The Dezeen guide to engineered wood includes CLT, glulam and dowel-laminated timber.

Architects enthusiastic about mass timber must improve their understanding of fire safety or risk disaster, experts tell Dezeen.

A stadium by Zaha Hadid Architects and housing by Adjaye Associates feature in this roundup of upcoming wooden buildings, curated as part of the Timber Revolution series.

A timber revolution requires us to focus on reducing mass-timber structures' raw-material use instead of trying to design the tallest possible wooden building, writes Maximilian Pramreiter.

Canadian mass-timber pioneer Michael Green has hit out at architects designing unusually shaped buildings rather than embracing biomaterials in this interview.

We take a look back at the Tamedia Office Building in Zurich by Shigeru Ban – Switzerland's first seven-storey mass-timber structure that was barely legal at the time of its completion in 2013.

Concrete as well as timber will be required to address the twin challenges of averting climate disaster and building the housing and infrastructure the world needs, writes Philip Oldfield.

One of our Timber Revolution case studies looks at an innovative, early example of mass-timber multi-storey housing, designed by Austrian studio HK Architekten in the 1990s.

Architects working with mass timber must stop emulating concrete buildings by focusing on height and form, and find a new way to measure success, says expert Andrew Waugh in this interview.

This Dezeen lookbook features cross-laminated timber interiors, including a colourful German vacation home and a tenement-style housing development in Edinburgh.
