Where an average timber-construction usually takes nine to twelve months in its completion, a bamboo home does not ask you to spend too much time for the same. But can you believe two bamboo homes completed in just two days? Even, we could not. Bamboo Living Homes, the only ICC-ES code certified designer and manufacturer of bamboo prefab homes in the world, made it possible while endowing it with its 14 years experience, on the Big Island of Hawaii.

People love, and I mean love their bamboo homes. We don’t have clients, we have fans. It’s such a kick to watch their faces when their homes go up – one day they just have a foundation and then a couple of days later they’re walking through their house figuring out where to put the furniture.
Says David Sands, co-founder and Chief Architect from BLH.
Stefani Goldman, the Los Angeles-based builder from BLH, installed electrical, plumbing and drywall within the strict time-frame. The bamboo prefab is superior to traditional structures, environmentally as well as aesthetically. Sequestering roughly 20 tons of CO2 through a 1,000 sq. feet single story, it’s negligible when compared to traditional constructional practices.
