Is wood a high-tech material? Is the ecological aesthetic merely speculation on the subject of beauty, or is it a concrete Utopia? Is architecture the search for an aesthetic for sustainable forms of living? Does the art of an environmentally conscious way of life mean “slower, less, better, more beautiful”? Are resources such as imagination, creativity and beauty unlimited? For Matteo Thun, questions of this kind form part of a holistic perspective. As a natural resource, wood has always been fundamental to architecture and design – and indispensable as a regenerable building material.
