Excerpt of press release :

Ottawa, ON, February 22, 2021 – Wood Design & Building magazine has announced the winning projects from the coveted Wood Design & Building Awards program. Launched in 1984, the awards program recognizes and celebrates the outstanding work of visionaries around the world who inspire excellence in wood architecture.

Submissions to this year’s Wood Design & Building Awards were an inspiring mix of structures, from a humble library built against a rock wall in China, to a reconstructed heritage horse barn in Alberta and Canada’s longest clear span bridge, in Nova Scotia. The functionality, beauty and diversity of wood is illustrated in the wide range of projects that won this year’s awards. With an increasing focus on renewable materials and net-zero buildings, the use of wood is a solution embraced by many of the world’s best architects and engineers.
