During my early architecture education years in university, we were asked to look into small projects, and that often came across bamboo, as we acknowledge that it is one of the most flexible and versatile construction materials (that&#8217;s not really acknowledged in Malaysia&#8217;s building industry). I recall that I could remember John Hardy&#8217;s TED talk and try to pick up all the details of the Green School that time, little I didn&#8217;t know, I would be here! Thanks to the company&#8217;s trip. I would not go into detail on the school curriculum, but I suppose from what you can observe from the built environment, the routine activities suggest a well biophilic designed environment enhance one&#8217;s experience on the ecocentric curriculum.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/COverPhoto.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3017\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/COverPhoto.jpg\" alt=\"COverPhoto\" width=\"1029\" height=\"485\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/COverPhoto.jpg 1029w, https:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/COverPhoto-300x141.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/COverPhoto-1024x482.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1029px) 100vw, 1029px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Yes , everything from Bamboo.

Upon walking further down from the trail, you arrive at the magnificent iconic bamboo bridge, spanning across easily 50 meters i suppose. That&#8217;s the first time i walk on a huge structure made on bamboo at last! The feeling was totally different from what you understood by looking at pictures, by feeling the scale and details of these structures, it really made you think again about engineering methodology for the bamboos. How do they know it will stand?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3013\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/BridgePerspective.jpg\" alt=\"BridgePerspective\" width=\"1029\" height=\"573\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/BridgePerspective.jpg 1029w, https:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/BridgePerspective-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/BridgePerspective-1024x570.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1029px) 100vw, 1029px\" \/>Well, but actually it did not. There was a bridge previously made as well and collapsed due it was designed slightly lower. When it was monsoon season with high tide at the river beneath, the gushing river manage to catch a loose section of the structure and eventually pull the entire structure down. But, then it was rebuilt.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3012\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/BridgefacingRiver.jpg\" alt=\"BridgefacingRiver\" width=\"1029\" height=\"557\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/BridgefacingRiver.jpg 1029w, https:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/BridgefacingRiver-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.japhethlim.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/BridgefacingRiver-1024x554.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1029px) 100vw, 1029px\" \/>This entrance alone was an exciting spot for any architecture photographer.
