Özet

In the distant past, wood was intensely used in Macedonia as one of the most important structural materials, available locally since ancient times. Therefore, the wood application in Macedonian vernacular architecture was inevitable, and with a wide range in the building construction, roofing, facade as cladding material, stairs, doors, window frames, and for different elements in the interior design. Despite this wide usage of wood in the past, nowadays, in Macedonia, wood is mostly used in mountain regions for massive timber buildings, in the interior design, or as an external facade decoration due to its appealing aesthetics. Some new companies that manufacture single-family timber housing are arising.
