Thinking of bamboo

- City of Tomorrow

Design Source:

Bamboo is a branch of bamboo grass subfamily (Bambusoideae) in general，Distributed in subtropical regions, also known as bamboo or bamboo。 

Bamboo rod straight, slender, slim, green season, Lingshuang proud rain, and has never popular. Lignification of bamboo is a perennial plant, with creeping stems (bamboo) and the underground stem (rhizome). Bamboo often cylindrical, and very few for the square, by the section and the section between the connection is made between the often hollow section, a few solid, Festival by the sheath ring and rod rings, each section of the branch.

Hollow bamboo the bamboo learn the principle of this applied to housing units and lighting glass, so light a section through a change in the different units, different time changes create different luster.

Design Notes:

The future of the city is no longer a square-shaped box shape, bamboo will break the law, making it more random mix, natural, and also more affinity to the change. Therefore, in light on the principles of the use of bamboo, each unit with a diameter of 1.6m of bamboo lighting system, through the pale green glass, a light scattering to the housing unit, while the top of the housing unit surrounded by light, wall highlighting its a sense of texture, Vents in the bottom of the depth of just over time the entire housing unit is more natural. If the lighting system in the bamboo to change water into richer, in mapping the entire housing unit spot and watermarks, in order to achieve a kind of ink for artistic effect.

Combination of bamboo, deconstruction, making it similar to the morphology of blisters in their surface to give plant to ease the impact of construction materials on the environment, in order to more rational eco-housing. Ventilation pipe within the housing using the principle of bamboo lighting is also an indoor ventilation system, lighting and ventilation so that combined.

Bamboo lighting system will use light green glass, bamboo Department has two glass up and down (with holes, make use of ventilation) folder tubular glass (external decorative opaque materials, to increase the internal reflection) so that light can be reflected in every corner of the housing units to increase the brightness.
