Bamboo Homes

Bamboo Homes

Bamboo Homes are houses that use bamboo as a principal structural material or an important component of walls, floors, and roofs. Bamboo Homes draw on vernacular traditions and contemporary approaches to lightweight construction. The shape of bamboo culms, their connections, and protection from moisture and insects influence building details, while local craft practices produce varied forms of framing and enclosure.
