Vert - the red oak's path to a cooler, greener city

As part of the London Design Festival 2024, the American Hardwood Export Council (AHEC) presents Vert, a sustainable timber structure designed to cool cities and increase biodiversity in urban environments.

Designed by leading industrial design firm Diez Office in collaboration with urban greening specialists OMCºC, Vert showcases the potential of two versatile wood products: Red Oak glulam and thermally modified timber, while providing a calm and shaded space for visitors.

Vert will be on display at Chelsea College of Arts during the London Design Festival (September 14-22) and will remain on site until October 14.
