With bamboo facades combined with copper, Perkins&Will creates contemporary design in a residential building in Ubatuba on the north coast of São Paulo. The façade is made up of vertical slats of treated bamboo, which can be redesigned by the movement of articulated louvers, becoming a living and dynamic element and giving it a unique identity and in dialogue with the local ecosystem. Bamboo works very well when applied to constructions as it adapts to the most diverse functions and forms. Low-cost natural material the species grows intensely in the region, reducing use of natural resources.
