WHY WOOD

It is possible to build an entire house solely with wood. No other construction material offers such a versatility.

Wood is healthy: It does not attract dust. It acts as a regulator – absorbing and emitting humidity in the space it exists. It insulates heat better than most alternatives thanks to its cells filled with air, preventing heat transfer. Heat conductivity of wood is typically as low as 0, 13 W/mK. Heating ratio of wood is fairly high. This means that it needs a lot of energy to increase and reduce the temperature of a wooden material.

Wood is economical. The life span of wood as a construction material is commonly projected as 80 years although a lot of wooden buildings dating from middle ages show that this duration may well be past. The prejudice that wood needs frequent care is a reminiscent of those times that people thought it necessary to cover wood surfaces with impermeable films of paint.

Wood has unique technical properties. Materials expand with heat. Expansion causes decrease in strength of materials. Since steel is inorganic and non flammable, it is resistant to combustion. However, when it is used in buildings, it expands and collapses as a result of increase in temperature. Wood almost never expands with temperature. On the contrary, it dries and gains strength with the effect of heat.

Wood is safe: It doesn’t emit any harmful gas.

Wood is special: Each tree has its own natural color, texture, grain and even scent. The grain structure of wood changes according to the way it is cut. It is always possible to find different wooden materials fitting different preferences of design and color. It can be painted and shaded to lighter or darker hues during use. All these make wooden products distinctive, individual and unique to user. Wood windows and doors are fundamental components in interior decoration along with other architectural components such as flooring and furniture.



Wood is a traditional building material for all cultures from East to West. Since its value is recorded in human subconscience for so long, it is a common source of warmness for all people anywhere and anytime. Because of the fact that wood is the material of both ancient and modern times, it is the ideal choice for a wide array of projects from renovations to avant-garde buildings.
