The UTAS School of Architecture and Design is continuing its long tradition of learning-by-making with two exciting workshops this summer in Launceston, Tasmania.
Run by the School's Centre for Sustainable Architecture with Wood (CSAW), the summer workshops are designed to provide students, building professionals, and timber industry professionals with an opportunity to learn about the cutting edge use of timber in design and construction in a practical and hands-on setting.
Australian Timber Design Workshop.
In the two-week Australian Timber Design Workshop (ATDW) participants will design, fabricate, construct and install a small timber building from a controlled timber-rich palette in eleven days. The building is for a local school, and its students are developing the design brief and will be the workshop's clients.

Achieving a balance between art and science – knowing when not only the science, but science itself is wrong Why do we do so much science? Is it for some greater good? The public purse is continually opened to ensure that the money is available to find out, or prove scientifically, that some particular infinitesimally small particle exists. We need to know when not to find out, scientifically. |
