Paulownia House

The world's first architecture designed and constructed in the Paulownia wood species. The test house includes a series of innovations and will be our research station for continuing studies of material and environmental behaviour related to architecture, design, and engineering for poetic, performative design.

 

Project Træform

By focusing on fast-growing low-density wood species, specifically Paulownia, combined with the development of novel modular, additive structures, Træform offers a new level of sustainable expressive articulation for architects.

 

Project Adaptive Daylight

A novel, low-tech, modular and high-adaptive building envelope for the modulation of light, temperature and air in existing primary school buildings.

Project Valet Female

A tribute to master Hans J. Wegner and his iconic PP250 chair. The project is a design and making of a new unique chair for the female, made from Mahogany wood retrieved in a through-away-dumpster. A project to illustrate design evolution and up-cycling processes from trash to an articulated design object. And the simple passion of designing and making with high quality wood materials.

Project Isometri II

A chair of simplicity, lightness and elegance. Developed through the properties of the Paulownia Elongate x Fortunei wood species, the composition of elements to holistic compositions and the use of simple fabrication methods provide the character of the both classical and experimental chair design. The chair weighs 2100 gr.

Project Asymptote I

A sibling to the Isometri Chair, the Asymptote introduces curvature, while maintaining simplicity of form, making and a focus on using all available material from the raw material logs
