Building a sustainable future

Our vision is clear: lead the global shift to mass timber—delivering net-zero buildings that redefine what’s possible for people and the planet.

Our Vision

Creating healthier, more equitable cities

We see cities not just as places to live, but as places to thrive. By advancing mass timber as a sustainable, cost-efficient building system, we help create housing that is both attainable and beautifully designed—strengthening communities for generations to come.

Our Values

The work we do is rooted in our values of equality, innovation, and integrity

We believe that everyone has the right to live in safe, healthy, and thriving communities and are committed to making mass timber accessible and affordable. 

By harnessing the latest technology, we are spurring policy reform and creating a healthier planet and more resilient communities.

To build a better world, we must hold ourselves and others accountable. We do what we say we will do, and uphold the highest standards of integrity within our team.
