earlier this year ryuichi ashizawa architects developed 'bamboo forest and huts with water'
for the aqua metropolis osaka event. situated on a small island in the center of the city
the project consisted of 7 temporary wooden buildings; one for holding workshops,
one for daily art programs, one for lectures etc.
the forest which was made from curved bamboo acted as a floating roof covering
1200 square meters. the hut for the artist’s activity center was made from wood,
where each joint was bolted, making it easy for assembly and dismantling.
