Brilliant conversations about the ecological, architectural, economic contexts of forests and building with wood in the 21st century. I’m an amateur woodworker, not a professional designer or architect, and I found these to be enormously engaging and thought provoking conversations.

Great topics for anyone interested in woodworking and design. I love the merger of science, ecosystems, economics, politics and everything else into the topic of wood. I wish they were longer and went into even more depth on each episode.
