Bamboo Details
A small installation we did for “Andromeda Festival” by the end of 2015. We reused the bamboo from Bambuild 03 to produce the items. In retrospect this was essentially an experiment in free form participatory design involving the 10 of us to produce something immediate for the festival. We went into the build with a very minimal idea of what we would produce and as such developed a simple reaction to the site constraints and experimentation with the materials and forms available. It was a fun build and the most fluid design to construction exercise I’ve ever had.
Bambuild series, Build 04 - “Bamboo Passage”
Head Designer; Steve Szell
Project Coordinators; Steve Szell, Marissa Lindquist
Our Third Variation of the Bambuild Project and our 4th build. This iteration of the Bambuild series was featured as a part of the Asia Pacific Architectural Forum for 2016 and runs from the 1st of march to the 17th of June. The project was featured alongside other notable architects such as Vo Trong Nghia and Richard Hassell of WOHA.
Due to the Time constraints attributed to the forum the Bambuild could not be run as a competition again. Instead We decided to put together a team from the previous builds participants and Dub Committee Members to workshop a design together for the event. After three workshop sessions we had a direction and conceptual approach to follow which I then developed to build able proposals after each session. Once the design was confirmed I documented the build in stages and organised the bamboo harvest to be taken place a week before the build commenced. The project took two solid weeks to build with a shifting team of approximately 50 people in total and required allot of adjustments onsite to develop the final construction methodology. This was partially due to the size of the bamboo used being 150mm in diameter being highly mature latiflorus bamboo. This project has been one of the most challenging to run due to the limited time frame to organise the project in and the lack of a confirmed budget which was sourced through crowd funding on Pozible. Despite this, I can say it has been the most rewarding and illuminating experiences I’ve ever had running a project. The structure is up at QUT Lblock lawn until June, please head down and walk through it if your have the time.
Concept Statement:
“
Inspired by pathways.
This design proposal is situated on a site which was initially intended to be used by students as a "recreational park" space. It is more often used however as a direct passage between buildings in the university campus with little regard to the build pathways that create the boundary of the site.
With this in mind the structure was designed to emphasise and partially redirect the users movement through the lawn by lining up the curvature of the structure to the natural slope and intended pathways either end of the area. The symmetrical curvature and internal movement of Bamboo Passageway also works to create an interpreted nexus point in the centre of the structure which seeks to draw the user fully into the space.
As the user is drawn inside it is intended that once they have entered the structure the user then realises that as the quality of internal and external spaces change, so does the potential for occupation of the space as a refuge from the sun and public exposure. Once inside the natural qualities of the bamboo posts create a direct relationship to the potential of nature within a man made structure and intends to link the user to the forest from which the bamboo was cut. “

Bambuild series, Build 03 - “Bambosque”
First Prize Winner; Gergo Andrej.
Project Coordinators; Steve Szell, Marissa Lindquist
Our second time running the Bambuild project at QUT and our third build. Through the Dub we again ran the Bamboo competition as a year long project where the prize is the construction of the First and Second Place project winners. First place winner Gergo Andrej initially proposed a much longer Tunnel structure to go through the site but due to cost and time constraints the design was reworked. By work shopping of the design we altered the initial design to a smaller version of the structure which maintained the conceptual and aesthetic integrity of the proposed design. This also allowed us to explore any potential issues and develop a construction methodology to follow during the week long build. The structure stayed up for 3months and again was very well received by the student body and university. It was the most rewarding project that I had managed to date with a wonderful result. The following months again provided us with a range of data and a deeper understanding of how the structure ages and reacts to the conditions over time.
Bambuild series, Build 02 - “Sunder the Sun”
Second Prize Winner; Amanda Rodriquez.
Project Coordinators; Steve Szell, Jade Tane Den Taniora, Marissa Lindquist
Our second time running the Bambuild project at QUT. Through the Dub we again ran the Bamboo competition as a year long project where the prize is the construction of the First and Second Place project winners. Second place winner Amanda Rodriguez initially proposed a 6x3m wide and high Woven Dome. Through constraints and work shopping of the design we reduced the design to 4x2m structure using split Bamboosa Textilus or “weavers Bamboo” for the structure. Ironically the bamboo type was not an appropriate material to use for this application and took allot of work to get to behave. The structure stayed up for 4months and was very well received by the student body and university. It was a highly educational build to manage and coordinate and allowed us to develop a better approach to project management.
