Building Green School Tulum

An exciting episode and topic for the future of bamboo architecture in the Americas. Jules De Laage is an architect, former Program Manager at Bamboo U and currently leading the team building Green School Tulum in Mexico. In this episode, we talk about what it’s like to bring bamboo designs into a new context that faces environmental challenges like hurricanes, which requires an entirely new design vocabulary to emerge as a response.

In This Episode We Discuss:

  • What It Is Like To Build With Bamboo In Mexico
  • Adapting To The Local Constraints
  • Turning Constraints Into Creative Opportunities
  • New Structural Systems For Hurricanes
  • Bamboo Species and Heat Bending Bamboo
  • Building Curves Without Compromising Structural Integrity
  • Testing The Mechanical Properties Of Bamboo
  • The Social Context For Bamboo In Mexico
  • Training Carpenters To Work With Bamboo
  • It Takes A Village To Grow Bamboo Buildings
  • Bamboo U Alumni Working On Green School Tulum
