Spirit of Wood Architecture Award
The Spirit of Nature Wood Architecture Award was an international architecture award, awarded every two years, from 2000 until 2012, when it was discontinued. The award was founded by the Wood in Culture Association (Puu kulttuurissa ry), a Finnish association sponsored by the Finnish wood industry. The award is given to a person or group of persons whose work exemplifies a progressive and creative use of wood. The prize money was €40,000. The award was made at a ceremony held at the Sibelius Hall in the city of Lahti. The award was given a total of seven times. A few of the award winners afterwards received commissions to design a small structure in Lahti.[1]

gollark: I mean, people already talk about them a bit, just not in a dedicated channel.
gollark: I'm pretty sure very directional antennas are a thing.
gollark: Wouldn't that just be... a (probably illegally high powered) FM transmitter?
gollark: I'd say it's Discord's fault - assuming this is true of course, I haven't seen it tested - for implementing such an awful system.
gollark: Since apparently the idea is that the restricted channels would still be visible to everyone but approved-submitter-only, you could maybe do *roles* for "knows lasers" and stuff and ask people to check that before offering advice on some things. Though you'd have to have that be checked manually, unlike with a channel.
