"Together with the Bamboo Village Trust, a philanthropic financial vehicle, and Kota Kita, a participatory urban design organization, Bauhaus Earth has developed BaleBio, a bamboo pavilion designed by Cave Urban and rising above Mertasari Beach in Denpasar, Bali. The pavilion transforms a disused car park into an open community meeting space, offering a counterpoint to the city's tourism-driven coastal development."
"Bauhaus Earth's broader aim is to help the global building industry evolve from a major contributor to the climate crisis into a force for ecological and social regeneration. It advances this mission through scientific research, demonstration projects, and political advocacy, bringing together professionals from architecture, science, and industry. The 84-square-meter BaleBio Pavilion was developed as part of Bauhaus Earth's ReBuilt initiative, a German-funded program promoting the concept of a regenerative built environment"
Bauhaus Earth advances systemic transformation of the built environment by prioritizing bio- and geo-based materials, building reuse, and ecosystem restoration. BaleBio is an 84-square-meter bamboo pavilion in Denpasar, Bali that converts a disused car park into an open community meeting space and counters tourism-driven coastal development. The pavilion is designed as a regenerative building that stores carbon instead of emitting it, challenging the island's shift from traditional wood and bamboo craftsmanship toward concrete. The project was developed with the Bamboo Village Trust and Kota Kita and serves as a demonstration within the ReBuilt initiative to promote regenerative and secondary building materials.
