The presentation focused on the use of timber and Glulam (glue-laminated timber) construction techniques, highlighting how technology and design can be responsibly integrated to explore innovative material applications in the built environment. Through a showcase of the studio's projects, the session examined the opportunities and challenges associated with working with mass timber, demonstrating how contemporary design approaches can contribute to more sustainable construction practices.
Particular emphasis was placed on the potential of bringing mass timber into the Indian architectural context, exploring both its environmental benefits and the practical considerations involved in its adoption. By sharing real project experiences, the presentation illustrated how material innovation, digital technology, and thoughtful design can come together to create meaningful and contextually relevant architectural solutions. This interactive dialogue encouraged a broader conversation on how architects, designers, and industry stakeholders can promote responsible material choices and innovative approaches to building design.
