• Bamboo Wing project uses environment-friendly bamboo for building material

  • 1332554743-6692-528x351.jpgBamboo is probably one of the best building materials modern man can put to use to have a roof above his head. Given the fact that bamboo is bio-degradable and grows quickly, it works as an efficient eco-friendly building material. To study the benefits of bamboo building, the Bamboo Wing project was chiseled into being near Hanoi, Vietnam. Made purely from bamboo, this building structure is an aesthetic treat to say the least. Sporting a 12 meter open space without any vertical columns, this structure can be used for outdoor events such as wedding parties, live music concerts, ceremonies and the like.

    Inspired by the form-factor of a bird’s wing, The Bamboo Wing project by Vo Trong Nghia architects covers an area of 1,600 sqm and could very well inspire architects around to follow suit and use eco-friendly building materials.
