However the huge range of options and the technical complexity associated with modern timber design require particular skills and expertise. How many projects initially conceived in wood are finally realized with another material because designers lack expertise in this area? How many others executed in wood have deteriorated rapidly or present design flaws as a result of poor mastery of the characteristics of the wood? For Ney & Partners WOW, wood is a material that inspires us and one which we have come to know and understand over the years, enabling us to develop designs which to give it a meaningful place in every situation. For this reason we decided to develop an internal center of expertise in wood. Through this centre we hope to share our enthusiasm and better respond to the requirements of architects, building owners, engineering firms, contractors and manufacturers.
