A brief outline of the bamboo workshop at TKM
In Daniel Defoe’s novel, Robinson Crusoe, the protagonist of the book survives almost solely on one of the most trusted materials known to man. Bamboo.
It is a cornerstone in the field of construction. To understand the intricacies behind this magical material is a tedious task. As part of Hestia ’19, we are organizing a 2-day workshop on Bamboo.
Through the workshop, participants will gain in-depth knowledge about the history of bamboo and its earlier uses.
Bamboo is one of the oldest building materials and the workshop will discuss in detail the different joineries and connections of bamboo construction.
