Why Latin America?
The choice of Latin America as an area to develop a bamboo construction workshop is due to the region’s rich tradition in the use of bamboo in vernacular architecture, which dates back centuries. Guadua, a species of bamboo native to Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela, has been a fundamental material in the construction of homes, bridges, and other buildings in the region.
In recent years, the region has experienced a resurgence of interest in bamboo as a sustainable construction material. Latin American countries have been pioneers in the development of technologies and techniques for bamboo construction, from the creation of beams and panels to the construction of complete homes. The cultural richness and diversity of the region provide an ideal environment to explore the possibilities of bamboo in construction.
In conclusion, the choice of Latin America for a bamboo construction workshop is due to the region’s rich tradition in bamboo use, cultural diversity, and innovation in the development of technologies and techniques for sustainable bamboo construction.
