Mass timber should be the default choice for developers, builders, engineers, and architects. It combines strength and speed with sustainability and beauty. This building material brings jobs to rural communities, sequesters carbon, and reduces environmental impact. Its aesthetic appeal enhances designs, making structures more inviting, leading to buildings renting or selling faster. Mass timber offers efficient construction times compared to traditional materials. Embracing mass timber is not a trend. It is the future of building.
We help teams streamline sustainable development through holistic value chain insights in mass timber design, manufacturing, and construction. Working with stakeholders, including developers, manufacturers, architects, engineers, city officials, and more, our expertise helps smooth hurdles, overcome challenges, research opportunities, and develop designs that are efficient, affordable, and right for the specifics on each project.
Conifer Advising is dedicated to advancing mass timber as an equitable and inclusive practice. We commit to fostering diversity across the entire mass timber value chain—from the forest and manufacturing to our clients, partners, and the communities served by the final buildings. We believe a diverse ecosystem of talent and perspectives is essential to realizing mass timber's potential as a sustainable solution for all.
Making Mass Timber the default choice.
-
Wood is a natural material and a renewable resource. Sustainably managed forests can regenerate and absorb carbon in the process.
-
Mass Timber lowers embodied carbon, utilizes a renewable resource, and creates a healthy indoor environment.
-
There is nothing as pleasant as walking through a wood building. The natural warmth, color, and texture, creates an inviting atmosphere.
