Oh boy, I think I just found my favorite bamboo house. This is top, top quality. A rare combination of sustainability, immaculate craftsmanship and stunning beauty.

Very few bamboo house plans are available. Besides looking online, I’m sure you can find bamboo house plan books through Amazon, etc.
The builders talking about it in detail.

There is also a neat construction timelapse on that youtube channel.
And… only partially related… construction on a completely different scale, but cool nonetheless.
Here is a video showing the hut construction techniques used in Thailand.
Love the gravity powered splitter.

Excellent video. I’ll probably post this as a separate blog post even though we’ve profiled this village and the Green School several times.
Could I please use this picture for a presentation I am making on sustainable housing. Would give acknowledgements in the presentation.
