Ash Wood: Projects, Journals & Ideas

About Discussions Projects6 Journals6

Ash wood is a hardwood species valued in architecture for its strength, workability, and distinctive grain patterns. Designers and architects specify ash for both structural and aesthetic purposes, from load-bearing elements to refined interior surfaces.

The community explores ash wood through contemporary projects that pair it with other materials like stone, metal, and concrete, as well as climate-conscious timber construction that leverages ash's durability and performance characteristics.

Weather the Storm

This project is a story about observation, understanding and accepting challenges for best results. The starting point of narrating this story was understanding the elements, limitation and opportunities for questioning “what if?”. What if people walk on the roof of the building? What if a bridge embraces a tree?

Lens to The Stars

Being in the heart of a National Park in Heves, Hungary, our main intention was to build something that embraces the beauty of nature without destroying it. Using mainly local materials such as wood, we created a module, a microhabitat that is multiplied on the site, resulting an ensemble, a place meant to give you a deep connection with the universe.

New-Angkor Coffee Table

Inspiration: This furniture was inspired by when Vincent traveled in Angkor Wat's Trip during Easter Holiday, 2018. Concept Idea: The metal frame is made reference from Angkor architecture shape. The middle part is lower, but not the highest. It is to emphasize the importance of dedication in the Angkor's history.

AESTUS

AESTUS blends material and machine: As a series of stratified wooden vases, AESTUS is designed and manufactured to explore a new synthesis of traditional materials and modern technology. Carved from hundreds of layers of wood by an industrial robot, the vases capture the fluidity of the machine's movements in the depth of the wooden texture.

Abanca

Abanca is a pinewood prototyped stool with geometric shape that can also be used as a side table, aiming to be fully functional and versatile. A lightweight easy product with the ability to be produced in several colours or just in natural wood. The structure offers extra comfort when in use due to it's foot rest and this can also allow for some storage.

AS WE SPEAK

The idea of the project was to create a natural concept and transform it into a museum of languages, where each of the seven existing groups of languages occupies its place. Treetops in the form of cubes are always one of the languages, and the trunks, in turn, its roots.
