520 Bamboo is a perennial grass that grows rapidly and rivals
steel, concrete, and wood in strength. Bamboo Contemporary
shows the many ways this incredible material can be used
to build sustainably. Featuring locales from China to the
Czech Republic and the United States, the survey includes
homes built entirely from bamboo as well as building
projects and renovations that use bamboo as the primary
component. Fascinating descriptions, documentary
photography, and architectural drawings will appeal to
aspirational lifestyle readers interested in
sustainability and natural materials as well as design
professionals. --|cFrom publisher.
