Nobuhiro Hirai and Hirohide Kobayashiand of Kyoto University along with Toshiharu Nakagawa of Nakagawa bamboo workshop designed an innovative greenhouse. Their masterpiece called the “BGH bamboo greenhouse” gave them the privilege of winning the Japanese Good Design award 2009. The unique greenhouse is made by interconnecting bamboo together. It is designed using such a simple approach that you can easily construct it yourself.
The connector design greenhouse ensures healthy plants, as it provides plenty of green house space for growing plants. Paying special heed to the environmental impacts, the designers’ main structural material became phyllostachys pubescens bamboo from forest thinning activities, enabling renewable use of bamboo materials. The need for a greenhouse that is capable of raising and managing plants efficiently resulted in this ingenious design. The designers fulfilled the requirement through a joint development project applying the hydroponics method of growing crops using no soil. Quite an impressive idea… What’s your take on that?
