TerraTimber / Professorship for Digital Design & Fabrication (DDF) + Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT)
Briefly

TerraTimber introduces an innovative method for the digital upcycling of waste wood to create circular construction systems. This approach utilizes computational tools and Augmented Reality fabrication processes to manage complex materials.
The project demonstrates how reclaimed materials can be transformed into structural elements, leading to sustainable floor slabs made from natural and recyclable materials, exemplifying the principles of Design for Disassembly.
By integrating earth into the material system, TerraTimber not only enhances sustainability but also show how an interlocking, metal-free joinery can be effectively used in structural design.
Ultimately, TerraTimber serves as a compelling case study for rethinking construction techniques, focusing on reusing waste materials from demolitions and industrial activities.
