As a good example of bamboo architecture, Archi-Union Architects created a project called ‘In Bamboo’ and they designed a bamboo pavilion with ceramic tiles overlying an infinity-shaped roof. Archi-Union Architects explains: In Bamboo is a rural construction project we did in Daoming Town, Sichuan Province at the beginning of 2017. Daoming Town is well known for its enduring tradition of bamboo weaving. In Daoming, the practice of weaving is more than a rural industry, it is an integral part of the way families in the town spend time together and how neighbors visit each another. The traditional Daoming Bamboo-Weaving craft is a living cultural heritage with much in store to offer contemporary ways of living and making.
The project is a multi-functional rural community cultural center with provisions for exhibitions, hosting conferences, community gatherings, as well as dining and recreation
The project we completed is a multi-functional rural community cultural center with provisions for exhibitions, hosting conferences, community gatherings, as well as dining and recreation. It integrates the site with the surrounding villages and with the natural ecology. The project also explores the interaction of the city with new rural construction. It practices the integration of new construction technology with local craft. The project integrates traditional construction techniques with prefabricated industrialization.
