This French construction company uses environmentally friendly wooden bricks to build [sustainable homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rewild-homes). The Brikawood patented system involves using three different sizes of [interlocking wooden blocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/common-woods). The system makes the building process go faster and is also a more eco-conscious method.

The wooden bricks can be assembled and disassembled without any glue, nails or screws. Every brick is completely recyclable and made out of Class 3 certified eco wood. They also provide high-quality insulation and waterproofing. Brikawood offers a studio kit and a wall kit, which enable you to easily assemble your own structures, from a 215 square foot room in your garden to your own economical home.

This shows how living arrangements can be more sustainable and how [micro-homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tign-tiny-homes) can be more easily accessible.
