Material Matters 01: Wood
About this book
Material Matters 01: Wood, published by Viction:ary in 2019, is a 160-page English paperback that surveys contemporary creative uses of wood across furniture, objects, interiors, and art. Rather than a forestry or engineering textbook, it collects projects that exploit grain, texture, joinery, and the idea of wood even when the material is imitated or reinterpreted. Short captions and images highlight techniques and the sensory role of timber in design.

For product and furniture students, the book is a visual briefing on how designers currently think with wood: as structure, surface, and cultural sign. It is useful for material research, for comparing approaches, and for sparking studio experiments. On a university reading list it belongs with materials and manufacturing and with courses that treat material as a starting point rather than a finish.
