About Us
Mass timber is the medium to our mission
Mass timber is an innovative structural building material offering incredible upside in comparison to traditional concrete and steel. Our planet benefits, projects are more efficient, and it is a healthier environment for occupants. At TimberRise, we understand the broad array of direct / indirect benefits of mass timber and how to capture its full potential. We are inspired by the possibilities of mass timber and we want you to be also.
Narrowing the gap between the natural world and the built environment
People have a deep-seated need to be close to nature and often live healthier, more productive lives when this occurs. As cities continue to grow vertically and become more dense around the world there is an opportunity to leverage mass timber in ways previously not possible. The International Building Code (IBC) now allows buildings up to 18-stories to be constructed from wood. For the first time, people can now live, work and recreate in buildings constructed from sustainably harvested timber at a significant scale. We want people to revel in the beauty and the strength offered by wood structures. The old is now new again and it will lead us towards a better future.
Process + Values = Intention
We are discerning about the projects we work on and the partners we choose. Experience has taught us that great projects reflect both the processes deployed and values held by the project team. TimberRise is building for a future that needs us to be better, smarter, more efficient and to build in a way that reflects what we value.
