What I have tried to do in this project is to come up with a system of building that gives the building and the materials within, a chance for a longer life. A system that does not only make it easier to change the layout on the inside, but also makes it easier to disassemble the entire structure with minimal damage to the materials and the surroundings. The pillar-beam glulam system is inspired by the Scandinavian and asian wood traditions. With wood joints and bolts, the inner structure can be assembled, disassembled and reassembled multiple times. By Designing for deconstruction the materials are not wasted if the building needs to move, and by making the layout flexible on the inside, the building can serve different functions and hold other family constellations within without too much effort or cost. The appearance of the system is meant to make you think of trees, with the stems and branches and holes between the leaves where the sun can come through. This is something that has come through the different iterations of the system and the buildings, together with the initial research of wood and the forests and through the process it eventually evolved into System:Forest.
