Sometimes learning kung fu prepares you to do something you cannot even predict.
I love the way the guy just walks back unharmed to look at the crashed bike!

Just red about this observation tower in Austria called Pyramidenkogel. Being very interested in wood building this structure gave me a vast amounts of inspiration. It would be cool to be part of this kind a of project someday in the future.
To give you some idea of structure:
The tower is 70.6 metres tall and the supporting formwork is made of 27 metres long arched laminated beams enforced with metal poles. In the middle of structure there's an elevator and in the outer rim europe's longest, 66 metres long slide. I guess you could get some sweet slide in that.
What do you think about wood buildings? I see it as a very ecological and beatiful way to build houses and structures. Would love to see it used more and more in the years to come. And why not, it's renewable source and has only a tiny carbon footprint combared to concrete we mostly see in the cities we live in.
Here's link to Pyramidenkogel:

Thank you for the link and ideas, Ville-Pekka. If someone wanted to be part of this kind of project, what is the next step for them to take? Also, why do you find the building inspirational? Thank you!

I do not know if the wood building is actually common or not, but I know it is very good to live in if you have lung disorders. Having those disorders in my family, my heart warms for wooden houses.
Wood is a very beautiful and natural looking material as well, especially in the houses made from whole tree trunks.   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee

I think the next step is to find people who are interested on the same thing so you can start to share ideas. That ain't a project one can just go and do alone.
I'm intrigued on building because it's very beautiful and the amount of passion designing it is extraordinary. Just to build it mainly with wood and not take the easy route with concrete is visionary. Would love to see these kind of projects kick off in Finland too.   _________________ "Having 2 ears and one tongue means we should listen twice as much as we speak."

You might want to look the file below, Ville-Pekka. I don't know if there is one in Finnish, though.

Thank you for the links, Milla! I like the looks of that high-rise wooden apartment building. Could be sweet to live in one those someday or at least being part of building one.
Not sure about CLT (cross laminated timber) though. They use some glues in manufacturing which could be bad for air inside. Hopefully it's going to be okay though and after all it's a new product and needs some time to settle.   _________________ "Having 2 ears and one tongue means we should listen twice as much as we speak."
