  • Building with natural materials, using light as much as possible and incorporating the nearby landscape into the residence is part of the concept called biophilic architecture. It aims to connect a building's residents with the natural surroundings. The Freebooter apartment complex in Amsterdam in the Netherlands was built according to this concept. We went there to check it out and talk to its residents to see if they feel any closer to nature.

    People are so obsessed with deforestation in this comments haha. Wood is very good for the clime and is RENEWABLE! It's the best material to use if you produce it wisely and it's eco.
    I wonder what would be your reaction guys in Romania where over 95% of houses has a framing roof(that means ALOT of wood). There's barely any terrace roof, even blocks have framing. Making a big framing roof probably consumes as much wood as was used at this building.

      @A Good point.Wood is indeed a very sustainable building material - many people still think of cutting a tree is like destroying nature.... Provided that the wood really comes from sustainable cultivation and has not been treated with pesticides, etc.

    As we all witnessed in the last "natural modern" movement owners don't maintain the exposed wooden siding, screens, and trim. Most of the Post War modern buildings facia boards, trim and other exposed timber simply rot. The issue then becomes whether this model really is sustainable. All this exterior lattice is fragile and very hard to replace without small cranes or scaffolding. Plus the cost of wood continues to climb.

      Construction industry has been one of the main causes of global pollution and climate change, so far. Timber is currently the most sustainable alternative to concrete as it sequesters CO2 and has a net-positive impact on the environment. Trees are replanted and the life cycle of the forest is preserved.

      With 122.5 m3 of wood used for Freebooter, the building stores nearly 80 tonnes of CO2, offsetting nearly 700,000 km of exhaust gas from a mid-range car and the energy consumption of 87 homes in one year.

      Deforestation is indeed a huge problem and one of the main causes of our current global condition. The timber used for this construction, and plenty more of other buildings, is certified (PEFC or FSC). That guarantees that the life cycle of the forests is preserved and that there is no impact on the flora, fauna and local communities. Timber is currently the most efficient and sustainable alternative to concrete.
