How timber shapes the architecture of worship
Few building materials possess the 
profound ability to inspire a sense of 
reverence and evoke feelings the way 
that wood can. Timber has been written 
into the narrative of human experience, 
cultural heritage, and architectural 
innovation. As such, it naturally creates 
a bridge to both past and future.
