“As timber continues to play an integral role in Australian architecture, the Intergrain Timber Vision Awards provides a platform for the evolution of structural use and new aesthetics, pushing the boundaries of timber application. We can’t wait to see the variety of timber projects unfold this year,” said Amanda Chalmers, Intergrain brand manager.
