wooden architecture
Buildings from trees
Wooden architecture is the design and construction of buildings using wood as the primary structural material.
The term encompasses everything from traditional log cabins and timber-frame houses to ornate wooden churches and Japanese temples.
The region is known for its distinctive wooden architecture, with elaborately carved facades.
The phrase often implies craft traditions and vernacular building styles rather than modern engineered timber construction.
