I have always like the way that bamboo looks compared to wood. Wood is a nice looking material for many different materials but in many ways it’s kind of played out- you see it everywhere from houses to furniture to flooring and it’s so predictable. With Bamboo you can make all the same things but people aren’t generally used to seeing it everywhere. It’s been around for ever and has been in many cultures, used to a great extent, but I just never thought of it in a flat sort of wood shaped appearance. It’s actually around more than most people- including myself- realize!
