Bamboo Structure for Orphanage Community Center
Project type
Vernacular architecture and building techniques
Date
November 2019
Location
Thailand
The Ban Unrak Children's Community Centre, a collaborative project by Principal Architect Mrugendrasinh Sarvaiya, SARV Sustainable, stands as a testament to eco-conscious architecture and community-driven design. It showcases how a built structure can be simple yet functional and find a place at the heart of a community. Prioritizing co-dependence and sustainability, the structure is built using readily available, renewable resources. Sun-dried bamboo, treated with boric acid for durability, forms the foundation, while traditional bamboo weaving techniques—executed in collaboration with local artisans—ensure a zero-carbon footprint. This project embodies a deep commitment to sustainable innovation and the empowerment of local communities through mindful, eco-friendly construction.
