Bamboo is such a flexible building material that I always get a kick out of seeing used in a new way. Of course, in this modern world, bamboo is not the consistent material of choice, so it's appearances are fewer and fewer. But here are a few.
Fencing
Gating
Plumbing
Furniture
Rafting
Gardening
And just plain decorative
I think it takes a special kind of craftsman who picks up a unique piece of material each time and makes it fit the craftsman's intent.
Bamboo is a popular choice for flooring here. Is it in Taiwan?
ReplyDeleteWe have a wood floor in our apartment but it is not bamboo. I think bamboo is the more upscale material because to make flat pieces is probably harder.
