The Swedish Institute has collaborated with architecture practice Architects Sweden on the new exhibition Woodland Sweden, which comprises an array of contemporary timber projects highlighted through various building typologies, including schools, housing, and cultural institutions. The exhibit, now in Berlin through October, will promote the benefits of sustainable buildings and how existing resources can renew the relevance of timber construction.
Using visual materials including models and drawings, the exhibition showcases a selection of design projects by Swedish firms, including the Härbret Summer House in Nannberga by General Architecture; the Timber House in Roslagen by Gustav Appell Arkitekter; Villa N1 by Jonas Lindvall Architecture & Design; a new cultural center in Skellefteå by white arkitekter; and Strandparken, an eight-floor residential volume in Stockholm by Wingårdhs. Winning designs from a student competition are also showcased.
