Wood Program exhibition

At the end of 2023, we exhibited work from our first four months in the Wood Program. The results of our experimental wood working assignments were on show in the Department of Architecture.

The first term of the Wood Program consists of theoretical courses as well as more experimental workshop courses. These allowed us to familiarise ourselves with wood as a building material and the workshop environment. In December, we put all our work on show in the Department of Architecture exhibition space designed by Alvar Aalto.
