Thread: Beautiful bamboo buildings in Bali

^ That's a beautiful bridge. (last pic)

How long to they last till the termites find them ? Are they treated with salt water, or something else ?

Beautiful buildings, as long as there treated there'll last a long time.

reminds me of the bluemountains treehouse

Love Cabins - Wollemi Wilderness Treehouse

Hardy builtvthe green school...where yuppies send their kids for a year or 2 to get greened up....unfortunately they not delivering what they aspire to and theceducation is shite...but he makes 4mil a year out of it.

These bamboo houses are for sale and rent, reflecting the outragious prices these gimps will pay for a bit of hippy experience.

Any bamboo, treated or not, if gets light and water on it will not last long.....if covered, it is fine...but a bamboo humpy, no matter how flash, should not cost more than a traditional house, yet these all do

Yep. The Green School is shite, but then again there's enough idiots in Bali who have read or seen Eat Pray, Love...

Panyaden school in Chiang Mai is a bit like this.





It seems to be for middle-class hippie Buddhist types who want their little princes and princesses to learn how to meditate, make adobe bricks, play at being farmers on Wednesday afternoons, etc. etc before going on to more serious careers as capitalist bastards.

I seem to remember seeing that the people who did the building work were available for private work; it was (I think though I could be wrong) 400,000 baht for a bamboo roof/structure shade over a swimming pool. Right on, brother.

The cm mob quoted me $1million for a similar structure

Nothing wrong with aspiring to be a capitalistic bastard providing one has enuf capital. If not one becomes a plain old bastard.

Bamboozled = paying extensively more for an object than what it could possibly be worth.

Does look nice though. I like the new style of bamboo floring thats come out lately.
