Designer Year
The advantages offered by bamboo, one of the world’s most important
construction materials, are being rediscovered today: not only is it
considered extremely costeffective and lasting, it also has an
unmistakable aesthetic appearance, whilst its internal structure is
remarkably similar to that of high-tech materials. Architect Simón
Vélez, born 1959 in Columbia, recognized the benefits this material
offers and put them to practical use in a large number of buildings.
His project, the pavilion for the ZERI Foundation at Expo 2000 in
Hannover – at 40 meters in diameter and 17 meters high one of the
largest bamboo structures in the world – is described in great detail.
