Abstract

This is a highly innovative solution to a residential design. A brave venture indeed for the student in coming up with new ideas in building construction using bamboo. The concern would be whether the bamboo can wither the effects of our weather and other natural process. An in-depth research could help in developing sound and sustainable any design solution especially when using bamboo as part of the foundation of the house within an environment of green living. Research and development could entail further contribution to the design effort of using bamboo as the main building material. The decorative function of the upper level of the house could be a subject of safety and security concerns. The student is commended for coming up with such innovative idea. If the design idea is feasible it could lead to commercialization of the product and sustainability of the design. A product design of this nature is very novel and could be the beginning of a new input in tropical design solution.
