WOOLOO BAMBOO VILLAS

"We have always had a great affinity to bamboo. It is embedded in our culture. Since we were young, we’ve seen bamboo being used for simple house construction and basic everyday use. However, we lacked the technical bamboo building knowledge and expertise. For this reason, I was inspired to join Bamboo U." -Marvin

When we worked on this project, we felt we went beyond satisfying our desire to achieve a certain aesthetic. For us, it's become an expression of our interconnectedness with nature and what we, as designers can do for its conservation.

We feel we have this responsibility to design such experiential spaces that help satisfy the user's innate desire to connect with nature.

"Connection to nature" is frequently used to describe our enduring relationship with nature, including emotions, attitudes and behaviour. Research shows that people with a greater connection are more likely to behave positively towards the environment, which may be critical for future nature conservation."

This is the very first bamboo villa completed for WOOLOO located in Garing, Consolacion Cebu. Our very first client who trusted us to design for them their sustainable bamboo developments. We collaborated with their in house bamboo construction team to translate our designs to life!
