Sekolah Hijau, Green School Bali (II)

"We are one with nature, and indeed the situation here will be much different if if there are some windows here. So I thought, they had a chance to be a conservationist and loving environment. Because they they've had experience with nature at a very young age. And maybe that could change the world, "said Lee Wood, a teacher at the school. Being on both sides of the slopes of the Ayung River, connected by a bridge that resembles bamboo roof gadang Minangkabau style, and around the buildings spread out the rice field, a glimpse of the complex Green School is more like villas than school. More over, the school complex is tucked among a row of expensive villas along the Ayung River.
Hardy is really exploring the curved bamboo. There are no rigid shapes with straight lines and sharp corners in building Green Schools. Bench seating was arranged freely, unlike the school in general that lined rigid. All the furniture is also made from bamboo.Green Schools To build this complex, Hardy and his team of PT Bambu many uses of bamboo petung from Java, because the supply of bamboo from Bali is no longer sufficient. To develop the cultivation of bamboo in Bali, now Hardy founded the Foundation Meranggi. For business this bamboo cultivation, he learned a lot from Linda Garland, bamboo expert from the International Bamboo Foundation in Bali.

Rumah Hutan (Forest House)

The housing was made mostly from wood and sustainable materials. None tree was cut on the parcel, what had been a challenge because the forest is very bushy. The architect wanted to point out that it is possible to built a modern housing in the heart of a forest without any human intervent. As for the interior, it is minimalistic and simple allowing to perceive the presence of the forest. Owners of the house can economize a lot of electricity thanks to the sustainable materials and natural shading of trees.



The majority of the present population is concentrated in big cities. This tiny house constructed in the middle of a forest has been designed by Mutsue Hayakusa that specializes in green architecture design and creation of “cell spaces” that are functional as well as efficient. The interesting facts about this projects are its location in the houseless area and its concept based on a game with geometric shapes.

The PRT (Personal Rapid Transit, understand "personal rapid transit"), rapid transit and light that looks like a mini electric streetcar, moves to the request within the city.
