I don't think I've seen any solarpunk art (much less real world construction) with transparent wood, so I wanted to share

Not only is transparent wood real but apparently it has been around in labs for a bit. Take a look! (And let me know if this is old news for you)

I'm surprised I watched the whole video. Haha. Mildly interesting. Maybe slightly more than mild. ๐Ÿ˜
