The forest value change


The project Skogsvärdekänslan explores how future wood products can carry not only technical data but also the stories of their past lives. Through the use of digital product passports—soon to be required within the EU—the project imagines a future where reclaimed wood is not only a sustainable choice but also a material rich in emotional and historical value.

Material history summary

This tree was part of a sustainably managed forestry initiative planted in 2000 on reforested land outside of Östersund, Sweden. The plot was among the first in Sweden to utilize the FGP-3 strain—an approved, genetically modified pine variety designed for faster growth, increased straightness, and improved resistance to pests and cold.

April 2001
Planted as a seedling in early spring 2000, the tree matured quickly, reaching full harvest size by 2025. The pine stood in a densely monitored stand of high-efficiency trees, absorbing carbon, stabilizing soil, and contributing to local biodiversity corridors.

Once felled, the log was transported to the timber terminal. There, the wood was crafted into a bench installed at a rural railway station. It served as a bench for 24 years. Travelers sat, waited, rested—marking time with footsteps, stories, and silence.

September 2047
In 2049, as the station was decommissioned, the bench was salvaged. The pine was once again transported to the timber terminal.

At the terminal, the wood was sorted, assesed and routed to an local luthier, a person who makes and repairs musical instruments. The routier has a fascination for materials with a story, and found the digital passport of the railway bench suiting.

The wood was transformed into an acoustic guitar. The pine wood gives the guitar a warm tone, but still with a clear treble. The guitar was delivered to Elin Andersson in may 2052.
