International architecture competition that asks you to draw from New England building and craft traditions to push beyond the conventional use of engineered lumber and heavy timber technologies. Use this opportunity to develop research and explore the possibilities of engineered lumber and heavy timber freed from the limitations inherent within the planning and construction of a traditional building project.

Propose a site specific installation innovating within New England building and craft traditions, using engineered lumber or heavy timber, to be realized at BSA SPACE (Atlantic Wharf, Boston, Massachusetts) as part of the exhibition URBAN TIMBER opening February 2014.
