To go \u201cinto the woods\u201d is to enter both nightmare and wonderment, chaos and serenity. The woods are the threatening realm of wolves and witches, yet also a space of peace and introspection. They confound and illuminate, disorient and clarify, endanger and protect. The woods are where we \u201ccome to our senses,\u201d and where we embrace our wilder selves. They are a space of complex life forms and ecological destruction; of growth and decay; of fantasy and ritual; of secrets and control; of hiding and? the hidden.<\/p>\n

The woods are often framed as a nonurban place; an entity separate from, and opposed to, the city\u2014even the world; an eternal refuge that can smoothly be entered and exited, gone into and back out of. But how much of our woods still remains to go into\u2014and on what terms?<\/p>\n

As designers, we encounter the woods as building site, as obstacle, and as resource\u2014territory to be cleared, but also to be preserved, cultivated, tamed, or simulated. Wood itself\u2014along with its products like lumber, wood pulp, silvichemicals, and charcoal\u2014fuel the building industry and feed architecture. In a period of accelerated climate change, the planet\u2019s woods are disappearing, burning up, threatening and threatened by human existence. How can we holistically address the woods and its ecosystems, and the life and life-giving power they contain?<\/p>\n

This issue of Harvard Design Magazine treks into the woods to come to terms with its precarious status as habitat and resource, and to challenge assumptions about wood as material. We won\u2019t be \u201cout of the woods\u201d\u2014this looping conundrum\u2014any time soon, even if the woods as we once knew it, and might still imagine it, has ceased to exist. At the intersection of wilderness, urbanization, and myth, \u201cInto the Woods\u201d embraces contradiction, challenges destruction, and revisits our roots, biological and architectural alike.<\/p>\n

\u201cInto the Woods\u201d combines contributions by noted critics and theorists including Milica Topalovic, Lawrence Buell, T. J. Demos, Rosetta Elkin, Jack Halberstam, and Maria Tatar; practitioners Dogma, Alexander Brodsky, Dilip Da Cunha, Eelco Hooftman, and Paulo Tavares; as well as artists Tang Chang, Maria Thereza Alves, Janet Cardiff, and Bas Princen; anthropologists Anna Tsing and Eduardo Kohn; and philosopher Giorgio Agamben.<\/p>\n
