Holz wird meist als traditioneller Werkstoff wahrgenommen. Seine Materialeigenschaften ermöglichen jedoch die Gestaltung von komplexen Origami-, Rippen- und Gewebestrukturen. Das Holzlabor der ETH Lausanne erprobt seine Forschungsergebnisse in Prototypen, um die Anwendung für großmaßstäbliche Holzbauten zu veranschaulichen. Dieses Ausloten ungenutzter Potenziale von Holz gibt inspirierende Ausblicke auf eine neue Generation von Holzbauten.

Wood is usually perceived as a "traditional" material. However, the properties of this material have now for some time made it possible to design free shapes and highly complex structures. Today, the wood laboratory of the EPF Lausanne, which was originally founded by Julius Natterer, is testing the production of origami structures, ribbed shells, fabric structures and curved panels under the guidance of Professor Weinand using digital calculation and computer-aided processing methods. The research results are tested in prototypes, which demonstrate the potential applications in large-scale timber buildings. By exploring the hitherto unused potential of wood as a construction material, this book provides an exciting and inspiring outlook on a new generation of timber buildings.
