Chosen
wooden objects showed innovations and innovative use of wood. They were
challenging the borders and limits of wood as construction material.
The limits were in terms of stability, sustainability and applicability of a certain object.
Wood as natural, primary element absorbs and during the growth stores a certain amount of CO2. Therefore exhibition was also showing the amount of stored CO2 that
contributes to the lower amount of emissions into the air. In this way
we could evaluate how much a good design deals also with ecological
issues and how much we are aware of the links between different causes and consequences in the nature.
