Abstract

The selection of wood in the design of objects is a fundamental process that impacts the quality, sustainability and efficiency of the final products. In this article, an analysis of the wood selection processes is carried out, considering technical, aesthetic and environmental aspects throughout the product life cycle. The implications of wood selection in terms of environmental impact, natural resources and sustainable management are discussed.
