Yes I agree, timber towers could be the future. Great post and interesting design. I also understand that there is a big misconception about timber. Here is an article on a good architect Alec Tzannes in Australia using CLT. They say it is sourced from Austria which is not completely sustainable in my book, as it is transported halfway across the world ;)

I agree, transporting it from far away is not really sustainable. But that happens only because this is a new material. When it will be more popular there will be producers close to Australia or even in Australia - I am sure :)
