Summary/Abstract: Wood is one of the most widely spread building and manufacturing materials, which has been used from antiquity till nowadays. Having irreplaceable technological and operational qualities, it is applied in different fields of architecture, design and art. In terms of sustainable design, timber with defects, arising in the process of tree growth or due to mechanical or insect interventions, is still applied while the defects are underlined and thus turned into effects. Often these defects (turned into effects) determine the structure and the shape of the product.
