Bamboo Oasis is a bamboo structure that provides clean water to residents directly at home. The design incorporates a water collection feature into the building structure. The collection system made of bamboo weaving, utilizes small mesh holes to collect dew. The lift roof can be opened and closed, prevents rainwater from entering the interior when closed, but can capture dew when opened. The bamboo bucket structure inside the Bamboo Oasis serves as both a water channel and support structure for the roof, integrating functionality with architectural design.
