| Summary: | The project investigates an aesthetic of assembly. It established a visual expression though exploring the relationship between disassembly and assembly in the context of laminated timbers. These explorations are manifested in a learning institution in relationship to an existing CLT factor in Långshyttan. The project becomes a dynamic celebration of assembly and a continuous learning environment as the building continues to disassemble and reassemble to counter the obsolescent of new technological inventions in a rapidly developing industry driven by industrialization and technological determination. The new building feeds of the factory for purely disassembled parts in terms of discarded waste and a pure form of assembly in terms of unprocessed CLT blanks. The production of industrial produced mass timber elements has further moved the production of buildings into factories and the erection of buildings at site consist primarily of an assembly of predesigned parts. Architectural advancements is inseparable from technological paradigms and the production of construction timber should carry with it new architectural expressions. |
