This week’s Archidesign Timber Talks BAU will be hosting Tina Wik to deliver her seminar entitled ‘Wooden Buildings in Sweden Solid Wood with Focus on Sustainability’ moderated by Demet Sürücü.
Tina Wik has worked on both new constructions and conservation projects in Sweden and abroad. The practice’s largest architectural conservation project in Sweden is the maintenance of Örebro castle. Works on this Wasa castle have been ongoing since 1992, with a break between 1998-2007, when Tina Wik was appointed architect in charge of the castle. Tina Wik Architects has also carried out a number of smaller conservation and re-building projects. Tina Wik aims to work towards Swedish national climate goals for 2050, as well as choosing and using climate-friendly materials and energy-efficient solutions in all its projects (see separate Climate Policy). Through Tina Wik’s post as Professor of Sustainable Architecture at Dalarna University, the office participates in cutting-edge research projects in this field.
