Sustainable Developments

​Alhibe Farm

Alhibe Farm is the personal project of Marvin + Sheryl of M+S Studio. It is a living exploration of Permaculture Design and Bamboo construction, an evolving experiment in building with nature, rather than against it. ​Home of AGWAS Cafe , Balay Aninipot Bamboo Villa & Treehugger Home.

Wooloo Bamboo Villas

A bamboo village development located in the hills of Garing Consolacion, Cebu, overlooking the cities of Cebu and Mandaue. The project explores bamboo as a primary architectural material while creating spaces that reconnect people with nature.
​
For our studio, this project goes beyond achieving a particular aesthetic. It reflects our continuing exploration of sustainable design, permaculture principles, and the role architecture can play in fostering a deeper connection between people and the natural world.

“Be like bamboo — the higher you grow, the deeper you bow.”
​
Bamboo, a material deeply rooted in tropical landscapes, became both the inspiration and the medium for the design. Working with it required humility, learning, and experimentation—from understanding its basic properties to exploring how it can be thoughtfully applied in contemporary architecture.
​
As our first bamboo architectural and interior design project for a resort setting, Wooloo Bamboo Village represents an important milestone in our journey toward designing spaces that are experiential, environmentally responsive, and grounded in their natural context.
