When time-honored craftsmanship inspires contemporary architecture.

Rediscover traditional techniques for working with green wood, which have now been revitalized and adapted to meet today’s challenges. Through modern and ambitious projects, this conference will demonstrate how this living material can open up new possibilities for building differently.

Wood is now emerging as a key player in the construction sector’s ecological transition. To explore its uses and prospects, Fibois Normandie, in partnership with the Regional Council of the Order of Architects of Normandy, the Maison de l’Architecture de Normandie – Le Forum, the École Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture de Normandie, and with the support of the Rouen Normandy Metropolis, is organizing a series of three conferences in Rouen this fall.

This initiative aims to shed new light on the use of wood in construction. Through case studies and presentations of specific projects, local professionals will share their expertise and discuss the major challenges facing the industry.
