Wood Construction
Technical articles, guides, and examples of natural wood installation in modern architecture and construction.
Acoustics and wood form a natural combination that enables the creation of balanced sound environments in interior architecture. Natural wood finishes offer unique acoustic properties that can be optimized through specific design to achieve the required sound comfort for each spatial typology.
The ventilated wooden facade is one of the most effective construction solutions for achieving energy-efficient and sustainable buildings. This system combines the natural properties of wood with the physical principles of natural ventilation, creating an optimized thermal envelope that meets both indoor comfort and energy efficiency criteria.
Biophilic residential spaces represent an evolution in domestic design that prioritizes connection with nature to enhance inhabitants’ quality of life. Creating healthy homes with natural wood goes beyond aesthetic considerations to address fundamental aspects of physical and mental well-being. Implementing natural wood finishes in homes yields documented benefits, including stress reduction, improved sleep quality, and strengthened immune systems–particularly relevant in a context where we spend approximately 90% of our time indoors.
Biophilic educational spaces with natural wood finishes have been shown to produce significant improvements in academic performance and the well-being of students and teachers, thereby strengthening the link between schools and well-being as a core pillar of educational design. Natural wood enhances educational spaces not only from an aesthetic perspective but through documented neuroscientific effects, including increased concentration capacity, stress reduction, and improved learning processes. The strategic implementation of these materials in classrooms, libraries, and common areas transforms environments traditionally dominated by synthetic materials into spaces that foster cognitive restoration and emotional well-being.
