Ezcurra + Ouzande visits LIFE Timber for All
The LIFE Timber for All project welcomed the architectural studio Ezcurra + Ouzande to the PEMADE facilities for a visit focused on knowledge exchange and innovative approaches aimed at promoting a more sustainable and low-carbon construction sector.
During the meeting, Professor Manuel Guaita presented the main objectives, challenges and progress achieved within the project, providing an overview of LIFE Timber for All activities and highlighting the role of emerging construction solutions in transforming the built environment.
Among the topics discussed was the potential of hybrid timber–concrete structural systems to contribute to the decarbonisation of the construction sector, combining technical innovation, sustainability and the principles of the New European Bauhaus (NEB).
These systems seek to integrate the advantages of different materials to create more efficient and environmentally responsible construction solutions capable of addressing current climate and sustainability challenges.
Visits and collaborative exchanges like this strengthen the connection between research, architecture and professional practice, helping bridge the gap between innovation and real-world implementation.
Through initiatives such as these, LIFE Timber for All continues promoting collaboration and advancing a more sustainable, innovative and impactful construction model.
