The Role: Bamboo Model-making in the Digital Era
This E-book, "The Role: Bamboo Model-Making in the Digital Era", seeks to explore the intersection of two worlds: the ancient wisdom of bamboo as a building material and the cutting-edge possibilities offered by digital tools and fabrication methods.
At the heart of this exploration lies the understanding that model-making is not just a preliminary step in the design process but a powerful tool for conceptualisation, problem-solving, and communication.
The process of constructing physical models has long been a cornerstone of architectural practice, but in the digital age, the relationship between physical and digital models is more interconnected than ever.
The E-book concludes with a series of case studies from India, France, Argentina, and Singapore. These case studies provide real-world examples of how bamboo has been integrated into architectural practice across different cultural contexts, offering insights into the creative possibilities of bamboo architecture.
