Chilean architect Jose Cruz Ovalle won the Spirit of Nature
Wood Architecture Award for designing the Pérez Cruz Winery in Maipo Alto. The
building is made of laminated wood that curves beautifully and smoothly, creating
wooden arches and pillars (for support purposes as well). The design is made to
“harmonize the structure with nature” as wind passes through the curved wood
supports. The wood is used in sensitive ways, and he forces light to enter in
certain ways through the angles and curves made from the wood.
