World’s tallest timber skyscraper proposed for London
Posted by Big Gav in green buildings, london
Inhabitat has a post an a rather ambitious proposal to build a gigantic wooden skyscraper over London's Barbican centre (in stark contrast to the concrete brutalism of the other structures on the site) - World’s tallest timber skyscraper proposed for London.
Presumably this is just a concept rather than a serious proposal - but there is a certain attraction to enormous wooden structures arising from the urban jungle.
