the green school






the green school by pt bambu architects. badung, bali, indonesia.
environmentalists john & cynthia hardy wanted to motivate communities to live sustainably. Part of that effort was to show people how to build with sustainable materials, namely bamboo. they established the green school which develops plantations of bamboo plants through presenting seedlings to local rice farmers. they also established pt bambu, a for-profit design & construction company that promotes the use of bamboo as a primary building material, in an effort to avoid the further depletion of rainforests.
