Nikos Kazantzakis - Bamboo Living Homes
You have your brush, you have your colors, you paint paradise, then in you go. Nikos Kazantzakis Bamboo Bamboo Living Living •• tel: tel: 877.857.0057 877.857.0057 •• www.bambooliving.com www.bambooliving.com THE FIRST AND ONLY INTERNATIONAL BUILDING CODE CERTIFIED BAMBOO PREFAB HOMES IN THE WORLD We’re all dreaming of a more sustainable world. Bamboo is the most rapidly renewable building resource on Earth. It removes CO2 from the atmosphere, it’s an efficient use of land, it’s beautiful, strong, and resilient. For thousands of years the special qualities of bamboo have inspired poetry, philosophy, and it’s a symbol for optimism, perserverance, and flexibility. People who love our bamboo houses tend to share those same special qualities. We invite you to join the growing family of bamboo home owners and be a part of a truly grassroots movement. Together we can take sustainable building to a new shade of green. If you truly love Nature, you will find beauty everywhere.

Walt Whitman Bamboo Living • tel: 877.857.0057 • www.bambooliving.com THE MIRACLE OF BAMBOO OVERVIEW BEAUTIFUL & VERSATILE STRONG Bamboo has a naturally beautiful aesthetic, is unique, interesting, and authentic. Diverse uses in everyday life: building materials, furniture, clothing, paper, high tech, food, bio-mass, fodder, and more! Bamboo is a strong and enduring building material. It has the same tensile strength as mild steel, and all our homes are engineered to withstand hurricane force winds. In 1995 Bamboo Living homes stood strong when a hurricane hit the Cook Islands with 170mph winds. FAST GROWING Bamboo is a grass, and it grows like a grass: fast. Bamboo can grow to its full height and diameter in a matter of months and be ready to harvest for structural use in 3 to 4 years. When shooting, bamboo grows 3-4 feet per day. SOLUTION TO DEFORESTATION Bamboo efficiently produces more usable timber/acre/year than trees. How? The root system of a tree dies after harvesting and each new tree seedling must grow a new root system. After harvesting bamboo culms, the root system does not die, but feeds new shoots, and mature culms send carbohydrates to the new shoots. SEQUESTERS CARBON When sustainably harvested bamboo is transformed into long lasting durables (like houses or properly treated building materials), the embodied CO2 is stored for 150 years, thus creating an effective carbon capture and storage system. According to preliminary studies, each Bamboo Living 1000 sq ft house embodies 28 tons of CO2. I thank you God for this most amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees, and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes. E. E.

Mahalo many times over for all your hard work and efforts on my behalf over the last 10 months. I hope my home inspires many others to build bamboo homes as well. KIND WORDS Catherine Ridder Renee Loux author & tv host of Green Living We fell in love with bamboo, and the way it reflects our values and green lifestyle. We asked David to design and create an office for Shep, and then shortly afterwards, we commissioned the first 2 story internationally certified bamboo home in the world. The result exceeded our expectations. Everyone that enters is struck by the artisan quality, warmth, living-breathing materials, and organic feeling. Jeanne Angelheart founder and former owner of FLAX Designs I loved co-creating with David Sands and the good people at Bamboo Living, and was able to adapt existing designs to my own aesthetic, and the results are a beautiful sight to behold, indeed, and all built from the most renewable material on Mother Earth.
