The Wood Innovation & Design Centre (WIDC) was completed in 2014 in Prince George, B.C., and stands at 29.5 metres high (97 feet). There is a growing interest to expand the tall wood building sector in Canada and beyond. 

Promoting opportunities for British Columbia-China collaboration in wood construction, tourism and energy was the focus of Premier John Horgan’s visit to Beijing.

Several design workshops were recently completed using B.C. wood at India's Centre for Environmental Planning and Technology (CEPT) University located in Ahmedabad, Gujurat State.

Wood Innovates BC profiles the latest B.C. expertise, wood design resources, events and workshops to encourage exchange on technological developments, research, building and manufacturing efficiencies and innovations.

The B.C. forest industry can download and use any of our 3,000+ high-quality professional photographs at no charge.

Completed in the fall of 2017, UBC's 18-storey tall wood student residence, Brock Commons, demonstrates B.C.'s leadership in wood design and construction.
