Abstract

Cigondewah, as a growing industrial area in Bandung, is facing with serious ecological and societal dilemma because of rapid growth of violating textile industry. Polluted water and soil makes traditional food crop farming difficult to maintain, while industry land is biting up farmland, the last precious green space left in this area. To solve this dilemma, I design a bamboo plantation and factory facillitating a self-sustained bamboo agriculture-industry system that can be run by villigers producing textile fiber as well as bio-based purification materials. This buiding is completely made of bio-based materials requiring only local low-technical building skills while still providing functional and pleasant working and visiting spaces.
