The building and construction sector accounts for almost 40% of global emissions. As architects look to lower its carbon footprint, they are increasingly looking to build with mass timber – thick, compressed, multilayered panels of solid wood. Vancouver-based studio Michael Green Architects (MGA) recently released its design for a 55-story tower (shown here in a rendering) in the US city of Milwaukee. Made principally from mass timber and reaching approximately 600 feet (182 meters), the wooden skyscraper would hold the title as the world’s tallest timber tower.
