Water Tower Shortlisted for The Wood Awards
We are delighted to be one of this year’s 32 strong shortlist for the Wood Awards 2022 with our project, the Water Tower.
The #WoodAwards is a chance to showcase the diverse, creative, and high-quality buildings and furniture being made using the world’s only truly sustainable and renewable material – wood.
This is shown through our project in our Water Tower project. The castle-like cantilevered Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) stair tower acts as a compression spiral as found in a seashell. The compression spiral delivers the steel water tank structure’s wind loads to the foundations.
You can see all shortlisted projects at an exhibition at Gallery@Oxo in a showcase with Material Matters during London Design Festival from 22-25 September. A second exhibition which will include models of the building entries will take place from late October to 14 December at the Building Centre, including a series of talks with some of the UK’s leading talents of architecture, furniture, and design.
