Three Buckland Projects Shortlisted for Wood Awards 2022
BACK TO BLOG MAIN PAGE
The WoodAwards aim to recognise, encourage and promote outstanding design, craftsmanship and installation using wood.
Every year the applications showcase the diverse, creative, and high-quality buildings and furniture being made using the world’s only truly sustainable and renewable material, and this year the 32 strong shortlist for 2022 includes three of our projects.
All shortlisted projects can be viewed online, but will also be available to see at an exhibition at Gallery@Oxo in a showcase with #MaterialMatters during the London Design Festival, which takes place from 22-25 September.
A second exhibition which will include models of the building entries will take place from late October to 14 December at the Building Centre, including a series of talks with some of the UK’s leading talents of architecture, furniture, and design.
We are incredibly proud and count ourselves fortunate to work on such great projects with wonderful people!
