Green Is In And I'm Getting Left Behind

I have not been Able to concentrate on my blog Due to the sad state of the economy and my complete attention consumption of the 2008 Elections. "Yes WE Did". I'm Looking forward to President-Elect Obama's Environmental Policy Plans for our future. "Go Green Realty" may be a reality very very soon.







The beauty of these elegantly folded bamboo structures is far more than skin deep. Individual modules are configurable to accommodate different conditions and create a variety of spaces all without compromising their structural stability. Also, the structures are remarkably straightforward to transport in flat form and assemble on site and are simple to recycle as-needed because they are built out of easily grown organic material. With all of these sustainable and practical benefits one has to wonder if there aren't even more uses for origamic structures than just as emergency shelters.






This sweeping sustainable set of structures is another example of integrating an engaging and unique appearance with essential environmental strategies. The curved surfaces are not only visually appealing but they also serve functions - taking advantage of winds and solar orientations to protect inhabitants but also to harness the energy of these elements.
