An Investigation into New Structural Typologies for Timber Reuse
Back to the Future explores how stock-based design and material reuse challenge conventional structural typologies, shifting architectural thinking beyond idealized or “perfect” systems. The seminar emphasizes intuitive understanding of structural behavior prior to digital analysis, combining iterative computational modeling with physical load testing to evaluate force flow, material anisotropy, and reuse-driven typologies. Working with reused timber stocks and building on low-carbon construction practices developed by GS8, students design and test structural systems that integrate waste materials into robust, adaptable architectural solutions.
