The 14th International Forum on Wood Construction took place from February 26 to 28, 2025, at the newly opened Grand Palais in Paris. Under the main theme “Climate Strategy 2050,” over 100 architectural firms presented innovative solutions for sustainable construction with wood and bio-based materials.
The setting of the Grand Palais, with its majestic glass dome, gave the event a unique atmosphere and emphasized the forum’s importance as a central platform for international exchange in the field of timber construction. We were especially pleased that Hermann Kaufmann was invited to give a guest lecture. With his expertise and knowledge in timber construction, he was able to make a valuable contribution.
