GWPA at ARCHISTRADA – BUDMA 2025

This year’s edition of ARCHI-STRADA, accompanying the BUDMA fair, once again brought together leading architects, designers, and specialists in the field of green architecture and sustainable design. Among the invited guests was Mirosław Wojcieszak from our GWPA architectural studio, who actively participated both as a speaker and panelist.

In his presentation, “Conscious Use of Wood in Construction and Its Role in Reducing the Carbon Footprint of Buildings,” Mirosław highlighted key aspects of wood-based design, addressing issues related to acoustics, physical properties of the material, and relevant legal regulations. An important point of his talk was discussing how wooden structures help reduce buildings’ carbon footprint—one of the crucial challenges facing contemporary construction. He also reflected on prefabrication technology, illustrating how GWPA’s solutions perform in practice, from the design phase through project implementation.

After his presentation, Mirosław Wojcieszak took part in a panel discussion titled “Wood – What Next? Environmental and Technological Opportunities and Challenges.” Together with other industry experts—Agnieszka Kalinowska-Sołtys (APA Wojciechowski), Anna Zawadzka-Sobieraj (Mech.Build), and Piotr Brodniewicz (Andrewex Construction)—and moderated by Maciej Frąckowiak, he explored practical aspects of using wood in architecture. Panelists unanimously emphasized that wood, despite its undeniable ecological advantages, requires conscious and thoughtful handling in terms of technology selection and logistics processes. The discussion also provided an opportunity to debunk several myths surrounding the use of this natural material.

For GWPA, participation in ARCHI-STRADA was an inspiring experience, confirming that a responsible approach to design and ecological awareness are increasingly valued by architects and investors alike. We are delighted to actively contribute to shaping discussions about the future of sustainable construction.
