Summary:
Arthur Lochmann a délaissé ses études de droit et de philosophie pour devenir charpentier. En apprenant le métier, il a découvert des gestes, des techniques et une pensée de la matière qui ont transformé son rapport au monde. Ce récit d’apprentissage plein d’humilité entremêle souvenirs de chantiers et réflexions sur le corps, le savoir et le travail aujourd’hui. Avec une langue limpide et élégante, l’auteur montre comment la pratique de cet artisanat lui a donné des clés précieuses pour s’orienter dans une époque frénétique. Parce qu’apporter du soin à son travail, c’est déjà donner du sens à son action ; qu’apprendre et transmettre des savoirs anciens, c’est préserver un bien commun ; et que bien bâtir, c’est s’inscrire dans le temps long : la charpente est une éthique pour notre modernité.

Summary:
Building with wood as an ecologically viable material is a tradition with a long history. The timber architecture, which has ensued over the past centuries, reveals to the modern observer the depth of knowledge which has enabled both Eastern und Western cultures to use this material in such a creative way. In the most typical method of building with wood, elements are connected by using wood joints which do not require the assistance of adhesives or metal connectors. This art of wood jointing reached its zenith in Japan; but Europe too provided its share of highly influential forms. By looking at several hundred examples from Japan and 18 European countries, with a new chapter on China added to this enlarged edition, this book de-scribes in detail the history of timber architecture in terms of its technical, aesthetic and ecological dimensions.

Summary:
Wood has the power to fascinate and inspire. From time immemorial, this versatile and renewable raw material has been used by designers from every discipline. Today, new finishing technologies are broadening the range of its uses and making surprising solutions possible. Wonder Wood presents this timeless material as it is being used today, and documents a selection of some one hundred current international projects by celebrated designers, architects, and artists whose cre-ative and innovative approach to the material makes their work compelling. For selected projects, interviews with the designers provide an in-depth look at the creative process and its results. A second section shines a spotlight on selected woods, wood-based materials, wood composites, and finishing technologies and presents project examples that use them. An alphabetical index provides background information on the designers represented in the book.
