Several companies supplied the timber, including Hasslacher Norica Timber (CLT), Piveteaubois (finger-jointed larch), and ZUBLIN Timber. The larch cladding was supplied by Russwood Ltd.
The Mews House, which won the Private category, is a 127m2
home described as “a
simple celebration of timber construction”. It features an engineered joist, timber stud and OSB sheathed frame, while the exterior cladding and expressed glulam are larch. Timber suppliers included Brooks Brothers Timber UK, T Brewer & Co (engineered timber joists), Lilleheden Denmark (larch glulam beams), Thomasz Raczynski, TAD Builders, Barth Innenausbau KGS (cabinetry), Andy Thompson, and K and D Joinery. The Interiors category was won by the
Equal Access Project – Inner Portico, a timber entrance at St Paul’s Cathedral. The portico provides step-free access to the main church floor.
Home-grown oak was the primary material and was supplied by Whippletree. The LVL structural frame was supplied by Buckland Timber.
The Douglas Fir House was the winner of the Small Project category. This extension to a studio flat was conceived as a single piece of cabinetry and crafted out of Canadian Douglas fir. It was prefabricated by a highly skilled team of carpenters at Emanuel Hendry in Devon, before being disassembled, transported and craned onto site in Muswell Hill in London. Equally exciting was the announcement of a new category, ‘Restoration and Reuse’, which highlights the projects that use timber to preserve and enhance existing buildings. The winner in this new category was
The Water Tower; a project from architects Tonkin Liu, which transformed an iconic but abandoned piece of local infrastructure into a beautiful, private residence, in what judges described as a “reimagination of what architecture can be”. The tower features CLT, which was supplied by Binderholz UK.
