Summary:
How might we design and build in a non-extractive manner? To address that question this book considers a recursive relationship between forests and timber building. It puts the forest first and offers a detailed immersion into forest history, forest stand dynamics, forest ecology, forest-building carbon dynamics, and possible future forest trajectories as the pretext for(...)

Summary:
How might we design and build in a non-extractive manner? To address that question this book considers a recursive relationship between forests and timber building. It puts the forest first and offers a detailed immersion into forest history, forest stand dynamics, forest ecology, forest-building carbon dynamics, and possible future forest trajectories as the pretext for thinking about timber technics. The specificity of regional forests suggests much about the prospect of non-extractive building design: building that tends and mends its terrestrial basis rather than takes, makes, and breaks it. Building activity can augment and improve forest conditions as an instance of regenerative design and as a path towards reconciliation, but only if conceived and practiced in ways distinct from normative design and construction practices. The future should no longer be a colony of present design practices that treat building as an art and science of extraction. By putting the forest first its conception of timber building technics, this book develops a more regenerative approach to the terrestrial relations of forest-building.

Summary:
Depuis des millions d’années, plusieurs espèces d’arbres ont réussi à traverser tous les changements climatiques qu’a subis la planète. Comme quoi les forêts naturelles peuvent survivre aux épisodes de chaleur intense et de sécheresse. Mais ce n’est pas le cas des forêts aménagées. Leur gestion actuelle, conjuguée à des pratiques de reboisement inappropriées, vise(...)

Summary:
Depuis des millions d’années, plusieurs espèces d’arbres ont réussi à traverser tous les changements climatiques qu’a subis la planète. Comme quoi les forêts naturelles peuvent survivre aux épisodes de chaleur intense et de sécheresse. Mais ce n’est pas le cas des forêts aménagées. Leur gestion actuelle, conjuguée à des pratiques de reboisement inappropriées, vise uniquement à augmenter la récolte de bois. À l’heure du grand dérèglement climatique, il faut d’urgence repenser cette façon de faire. Il serait notamment justifié d’appliquer la fameuse taxe carbone à la sylviculture, sachant qu’un mètre cube de bois peut équivaloir à une tonne de dioxyde de carbone. Provocatrice, cette proposition s’inscrit bien dans l’optique d’une foresterie viable. Pour cela, il faut privilégier la plantation d’arbres indigènes, et aider les écosystèmes à s’autogérer. Et dans ce défi écologique pour concevoir les forêts du futur, chaque arbre compte.
