Waugh Thistleton build a pile of American Tulipwood CLT cubes in the Sackler Court at the V&A
Waugh Thistleton Architects have been working with Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) for longer than just about anyone outside of Austria, where the stuff was invented. When they built their first timber tower in London they had to hide the stuff; their client was afraid that people wouldn't want to live in a wooden building.
Now, a decade later, nobody is hiding anything, and Waugh Thistleton is building MULTIPLY in the Sackler Courtyard of the Victoria and Albert Museum as part of the London Design Festival.
