POSSIBLE WITH WOOD!
Closer to Wood, Closer to Understanding
1 October 2025, Haliç Kongre Merkezi
Engineered timber, natural in origin, yet enhanced through industrial processes to achieve high load-bearing capacity and precision, is increasingly present in today’s construction landscape. This exhibition offers an introduction to this new generation of building components, shaped by modern manufacturing techniques such as CLT and glulam. It brings together material samples, connection details, and a full-scale spatial setup, inviting visitors to explore engineered timber systems as a strong construction alternative for a more sustainable and resilient future.

About
This exhibition, held within the scope of MARUF25, was developed together with Türkiye’s leading pioneers in engineered timber. It was designed to foster closer engagement with wood and to deepen the understanding of contemporary timber building systems. Bringing together expertise from forestry, production, and architectural design, the exhibition positioned engineered timber as a material of strength, innovation, and sustainability, offering new perspectives for the future of building.
