Emerging Technologies
Digital Twins for Construction
Digital twins are virtual replicas of physical buildings that allow for real-time monitoring, simulation, and optimization throughout the construction lifecycle and beyond.
Advanced Prefabrication Robotics
Robotics and automation in workshops for timber frame component prefabrication can significantly increase precision, speed, and reduce labor costs.
AI-powered Parametric Design
Artificial intelligence integrated with parametric design tools can rapidly generate and optimize custom timber frame designs based on client needs, budget, and energy performance goals.
Impactful Policy Frameworks
Réglementation Environnementale 2020 (RE2020)
RE2020, implemented in France since January 1, 2022 for new residential buildings, sets stricter energy performance, environmental impact, and summer comfort requirements for new constructions, prioritizing low-carbon materials like timber.
This policy directly benefits Avenir & Bois by increasing demand for timber frame construction, which inherently aligns with RE2020's low-carbon and energy efficiency goals, making their specialized offering highly desirable.
Loi Climat et Résilience (2021)
The 'Climate and Resilience Law' (Loi Climat et Résilience) of August 22, 2021, strengthens environmental protection and climate action in various sectors, including construction, by promoting sustainable building practices and material choices.
This law reinforces the market shift towards sustainable building, creating a more favorable regulatory environment for Avenir & Bois's timber frame and passive house expertise, and potentially increasing client incentives for such projects.
Plan de Relance France (Post-COVID, ongoing)
France's recovery plan, introduced post-COVID-19, includes significant investments and incentives for energy renovation and green construction to boost the economy and accelerate ecological transition.
This plan stimulates the overall construction market, especially for energy-efficient renovations and new builds, which can indirectly benefit Avenir & Bois through increased consumer confidence and potential aid for clients investing in sustainable homes.
