Following a first experience in 2006, a modern interpretation of the material with easy to assemble mechanical connections is further developed.
The same bamboo from previous pavillion is reused today cutted into plates connected through steel and neoprene joints to create a complex geodesic geometry with amazing static properties, lightness, versatility and modernity.
Glazed panels with possible integration of photovoltaic cells and modules of translucid textile fabrics compose the envelope; whilst rammed earth flooring offers the necessary weight to give stability to the structure without having to damage the existing pavement.
A new experiment on the potential of this natural material, a research on new contemporary languages.
