You can bend bamboo using heat 🤸. It's not easy, but it's possible!
We built our very first building using heat-bent bamboo: The Kul Kul Farm Kitchen. Crafted using small diameter bamboo harvested from the farm, built with students during the 11 Day Build & Design Course.
Bamboo Yurts are our favorite buildings to build with students!
This year we built 5 bamboo yurts including 2 mud and bamboo yurts. We’re dreaming of turning everything we’ve learned and mastered into an online course. Stay Tuned!
You can build a bamboo structure using no drawings, just augmented reality!
This 20 meter diameter bamboo dome kept us awake at night, but it's coming together beautifully and we’re excited to share the final result.
Bamboo makes for a really beautiful Airbnb
Thank you all ...

All OUR best,
Orin, Maria, and The Bamboo U Team
