Aliquot Timber Studio challenges the conception of wood as it is currently understood. It takes on conventional notions of wood in order to expand its use and investigate value added processes in timber in order to advance the state of the art and propose new uses and applications of wood in architecture. Aliquot Timber will ask wood to perform in a non-heirarchical and more flexible way, speculating on how to do this. We will research current state of the art experiments and processes in wood design today and speculate on the manufacturing processes and structural behaviour required to propose new forms and modes of designing with wood.
