Call For Papers

The editorial proposal concerns digital representation strategies able to change the future of wooden architectures, by combining tradition and innovation.
Call for chapters is aimed to anyone who intends to bring innovation and experience in the wood construction field, related to the advanced digital modeling with a particular attention to the solutions associated with generative models and the dynamic value inherent the relation between knowing how to draw and how to build, a relation that finds in geometry its foundation. Although wood is one of the oldest construction materials, in the recent years many innovations have affected the production techniques and the design tools, and they have paved the way for new formal, aesthetic and structural solutions that can fill the application fields of this material. Lightness and eco-compatibility of features make this material a valuable alternative to materials that have characterized the recent architectural debate, offering the ability to build with sustainable, fully renewable and high-performance materials in energy and structural aspects, capable of complying with architectural solutions of great freedom. Thanks to the potential of computing, parametric design and digital manufacturing are decisively contributing to renew a spinneret which looks forward to driving the future of construction.
Authors are invited to submit their contributions, initially by an abstract, in English, which must contain:
• Title and subtitle
• Author and affiliate
• Themes and keywords (max 5)
• Text (min 500 words, max 2000 words)
• An image 300 dpi
It is suggested to promote successful experiences, ongoing projects with innovative ideas and ideas in the field of wood construction, advanced digital modeling solutions, original technical/scientific work and innovative applications.
The contributions submitted will be evaluated by a panel of experts and the evaluation criteria will consider both the features of the proposed intervention and the originality of the topic being dealt with.
When the authors of the contribution are more than one, when possible, the contribution of each author will be explicit.
Proposal keywords are:
• Wood design
• Parametric design and fabrication strategies
• CNC and Woodworking Technology
• Wood stereotomy and descriptive geometry
• Wood joint systems
• Flexible wood
• Complex Timber Structures
• Parametric timber engineering
• Large-scale Cross-laminated timber (CLT) projects
• Wood complex surface
• Discretization of surface
• History of representation in wood design
• Optimization of wood architectures
• Wood and geometry in the history
Send the abstract to digitalwooddesign@gmail.com
The final contribution, following the acceptance of the abstract, will consist of a chapter in english containing:
• Title and subtitle
• Author and affiliate
• Themes and keywords (max 10)
• Short abstract (100 words)
• Text (min 5000 words, max 12,000 words)
• Bibliographical references
Received contributions will be subject to a double-blind peer review both for the acceptance phase of the abstract and for the stage of the final publication. Acceptance may be subject to any changes requested by the reviewers.
