About the event
Sky Timber: Mass Timber Architecture in the Tropics Lecture Series 2018
Embracing the social mission, Sky Timber lecture series will address issues/challenges
on the development of the Mass Timber Architecture in the Tropics as well as on-going
advanced development in Europe. As the nature of contemporary architectural practice,
especially in the area of Mass Timber Architecture, it will be highly multidisciplinary
discourse from regulations, forestry, industry, architecture, structure, building systems and
project management point of views. Overall, by creating a platform for the next generation
professionals and industries to debate both positive and critical aspects of the Mass
Timber Architecture in the Tropics, the Sky Timber lecture series envisions that it raises
more awareness on prominent value of sustainable construction and forestry in the region,
ultimately opens up ways toward symbiosis between forestry and urbanism in Southeast
Asia and beyond.
