Golden Flower
Traditional constructions are generally realized using metal, adobe, cardboard or concrete structures. In this study, we consider to build a structure by using phyllostachys edulis, a Chinese bamboo species also known as “Moso bamboo”. Bamboo, as a new trend in the construction market, is a good acoustic and thermal insulator. Compared to traditional construction materials, bamboo is light, easy to handle, and with very good earthquake-resistance performances; in fact, it has been used in certain regions of Ecuador and Colombia by using different anchoring and fastening techniques. In this project, we implement mooring and anchoring techniques, which are traditional construction approaches. The proposed pavilion is an external bamboo installation made of six petals. Based on principles of dynamics, colour, size and proportion, an innovative bamboo structural design was created after the required calculations. The design is inspired by the concept of golden ratio. Golden Flower, an architecture installation by using round bamboo poles and strips, fully showing the material and artistic characteristics of bamboo.
