It explores innovative ways of designing with natural materials to build houses, schools and even event spaces. It is built with the help of local skills and artisanal techniques, combined with modern design ideas and engineering. Here are two new architectural works that offer an authentic and original relationship with the environment to fit into the landscape.

As a result, bamboo is being heralded as having a bright future beyond the borders of Asia.<\/p>\n<p>Raw earth, now associated with the famous 3D printing, makes it possible to rapidly create houses on demand, revisiting vernacular architecture in a policy of ecology.<\/p>\n<p>When beauty meets technology, human beings can develop a wealth of imagination in an attempt to save their planet and transform the world of construction, one of the most polluting activities in our society, into a more responsible and virtuous centre of creation.<\/p>\n<p>Architects with varied profiles and growing renown, such as the Italian <a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/en\/architecture\/stefano-boeri-the-champion-of-green-architecture\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Stefano Boeri, a fervent defender of the ecological cause in architecture and author of the Vertical forest in Milan<\/a>, and the Belgian and Parisian by adoption Vincent Callebaut, co-designer of the Belgian Pavilion at the 2020 Universal Exhibition, who thinks of international projects with a biomimetic dimension, are the names to remember among the ever-increasing number of builders of green architecture.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_monumental_bamboo_arch_by_the_IBUKU_architecture_collective\"><\/span>The monumental bamboo arch by the IBUKU architecture collective<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.archdaily.com\/964059\/the-arc-at-green-school-ibuku\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The Arc at Green School<\/a> (2021) is one of the latest projects of <a href=\"https:\/\/ibuku.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">the Indonesian architectural firm IBUKU<\/a>, formed by several young architects and designers and with the experience of a hundred bamboo constructions.

For this project, their principle remained simple: in order to design this imposing arch and form its posts, the tips of the canes were brought together by binding them.<\/p>\n<p>This extension was made from a local giant bamboo called Dendrocalamus asper. Also known as Petung, it comes from the islands of Bali, Java and Flores. Bamboo is fast growing and can be used for structural columns within the first three years of growth, whereas softwoods take ten to 20 years to grow.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_natural_and_sustainable_building_by_definition\"><\/span>A natural and sustainable building by definition<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The Arc has a usable area of 760 square metres and external dimensions of 23.5 metres wide, 41 metres long and 14 metres high. Before construction, the bamboo was treated with a natural salt solution. The material was also laboratory tested to confirm its durability and to make it inedible to insects. This makes it as strong as wood, although it cannot be directly compared to it.<\/p>\n<p>Strong and with the compressive strength of concrete, bamboo is a unique material and a benchmark in ultra-lightweight construction. By exploiting its qualities to the extreme, it makes it possible to create large volumes with a minimal structure. Here, the vaults are held in place by stretched wefts, which drape into the space. The wefts, offering a more intimate space, draw a play of ample weaves and finer arches. Structural, although attached to the arches, they help to redistribute the weight along them. A technical feat.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1378\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1378\" class=\"center wp-image-1378\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration green architecture\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/the-arc-green-architecture-01-ok.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration green architecture\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1378\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tommaso Riva | The Arc at Green School in Bali, Indonesia (Mario Cucinella Architects and WASP Stampanti 3D) in VILLAS 109<\/p><\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Making_the_most_of_bamboo_in_construction\"><\/span>Making the most of bamboo in construction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\u201cBamboo buildings are like a living organism. Each bamboo pole represents the DNA of the building. Each one is unique, like real DNA strands forming a network structure. Each pole has its own specific function, be it for walls, ceilings, stairs or roof. When they come together, they form a body,\u201d says Canadian Elora Hardy, founder of the architecture and design agency IBUKU and its creative director since 2010.<\/p>\n<p>Daughter of Canadian-American couple <a href=\"https:\/\/greenbyjohn.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">John and Cynthia Hardy, founders of the Green School<\/a> \u2013 a pioneering sustainable school project launched in the 1990s \u2013 Elora Hardy has continued her parents&#8217; work. The entrepreneur also founded the specialist construction company PT Bamboo Pure. In doing so, she was supported by the expertise of a master of bamboo construction, the German J\u00f6rg Stamm, who developed the concept of the \u201ccentral tower\u201d in the form of a woven bamboo basket. A creation that allows large buildings to be supported.<\/p>\n<p>While some bamboo buildings can last up to 100 years, The Arc was built to last at least 25 years. From a large multi-purpose hall to a gymnasium for sports activities, it has many uses.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1454\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1454\" class=\"center wp-image-1454\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration green architecture\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/THE-ARC_02-ok-2.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration green architecture\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1454\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tommaso Riva | The Arc at Green School in Bali, Indonesia (Ibuku) in VILLAS 109<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_high-tech_3D_printed_earth_house_by_WASP_and_Mario_Cucinella_Architects\"><\/span>A high-tech 3D printed earth house by WASP and Mario Cucinella Architects<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Located in Italy, Tecla (2021) is the first experimental house to be built using the 3D printing technique and made entirely of raw earth.
