Architects are increasingly using mass timber in the hopes of creating net-zero buildings but carbon assessments are missing key sources of potential emissions, researchers tell Dezeen in this Timber Revolution feature. More about The hidden carbon impacts of getting mass timber wrong
Mass timber's reputation as the go-to low-carbon construction material is a problematic oversimplification that is leading to greenwashing, says carbon expert Amy Leedham in this Timber Revolution interview. More about "Mass-timber buildings can have very high carbon emissions" says Amy Leedham
As part of our Timber Revolution series, Dezeen asked mass-timber experts about the ongoing race to build ever-taller wooden buildings. More about Building tall with timber "does not make sense" say experts
As part of our Timber Revolution series, we have rounded up the world's 10 tallest buildings with mass-timber structures, including an engineered-wood shopping-centre extension and a carbon-negative cultural centre. More about Top 10 tallest mass-timber buildings around the world
Mass timber could become a key tool in reducing waste from the construction industry, GXN partner Lasse Lind tells Dezeen in this interview for our Timber Revolution series. More about "The approach should be to minimise the use of concrete and steel" says Lasse Lind
Our next Timber Revolution case study profiles a mass-timber office building by Michael Green Architecture, which became the first tall wooden structure in the USA when it completed in 2016. More about T3 by MGA is an office building constructed from trees killed by bugs
Mass timber will not become a mainstream building product because it uses too much wood, construction material expert Benjamin Kromoser claims in this interview for the Timber Revolution. More about Mass timber "definitely not the right way to go" says Benjamin Kromoser
Up next in our Timber Revolution series is a look at the Dalston Works apartment complex in London by Waugh Thistleton Architects, which is the world's largest cross-laminated timber building. More about Dalston Works demonstrated that "timber is a viable alternative to concrete and steel at scale"
World-leading fire safety expert José Torero has told Dezeen he is "extremely concerned" about mass-timber buildings being constructed around the world. More about Fire safety expert "extremely concerned" about mass-timber buildings
Architects enthusiastic about mass timber must improve their understanding of fire safety or risk disaster, experts tell Dezeen as part of the Timber Revolution series. More about Are mass-timber buildings a fire safety risk?
We should be aiming for the future depicted in the Timber Revolution logo with a combination of mid- and high-rise mass-timber buildings interspersed with trees, argues ACAN co-founder Joe Giddings in this interview. More about "Forests could be at the heart of our society again" says Joe Giddings
As we continue our Timber Revolution series, we look at Australia's first mass-timber high-rise apartment building, which was built from cross-laminated timber grown in Austria. More about Lendlease's mass-timber tower was shipped from Austria to Australia
Continuing our Timber Revolution series, we look at the Tamedia Office Building by Shigeru Ban – Switzerland's first seven-storey mass-timber structure that was barely legal at the time of its completion in 2013. More about Shigeru Ban's timber-skeleton Tamedia building left engineers "incredulous"
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 an interview for our Timber Revolution series. More about "At first we were definitely making concrete buildings out of timber" says Andrew Waugh
Czech studio Mjölk Architekti has created a mass-timber building with a gabled solar-panelled roof for the headquarters of timber and forest management company Kloboucká lesní in the Czech Republic. More about Mjölk Architekti creates gabled wooden headquarters for Czech timber company
Ambitious concepts like Nikken Sekkei's proposal for the world's tallest timber skyscraper can accelerate the use of engineered wood but should not be the focus, argues Hajime Aoyagi in this Timber Revolution interview. More about "Promote demand for wood in low-rise buildings" says architect of timber supertall concept
Next in our Timber Revolution series, we profile a university laboratory by Austrian studio Nussmüller Architekten that was conceived as both an advert and a testing centre for the capabilities of mass timber. More about BTZ laboratory at TU Graz was the early home of mass-timber research
Canadian mass-timber pioneer Michael Green has hit out at architects designing unusually shaped buildings rather than embracing biomaterials in this interview as part of Dezeen's Timber Revolution series. More about Architects not adopting biomaterials are "dinosaurs" says Michael Green
Straw, eelgrass and wood feature in this bio-based extension that Danish architecture studio Henning Larsen has added to Feldballe School in Denmark. More about Henning Larsen uses natural materials for Danish school extension
The second case study in our Timber Revolution series is Murray Grove, a London housing tower by Waugh Thistleton that has a superstructure built almost entirely from cross-laminated timber. More about Murray Grove housing by Waugh Thistleton kickstarted "tall-timber movement"
