You’re commenting from a .nl instance and aren’t aware of the 400+ year old timber buildings in the Netherlands, or the fact that there’s a current project to build the tallest timber skyscraper in the world in Eindhoven?

It’s not, the reason we built with stone here is that trees were historically rare as a building material. Secondly, a concrete structure needs more quality controls, and bad concrete is less durable than wood. Nobody builds with stone and bricks are just used for non structural walls.

Is there any good reason to be this vile to a stranger?
