Ibuku

We design to connect people with place, to integrate with the world around us, to feel that we belong. Also, we aspire toward a playful sense of delight and the experience of wonder.
IBUKU is a team of young designers, architects and engineers exploring groundbreaking ways of using bamboo to build homes, hotels, schools, and event spaces in Bali, Indonesia. We are creating a new design vocabulary based on this one material and exploring the way sustainable architecture and design can redefine luxury. The materials we use, the people we work with, and the land we build on all inform our design process. The traditional skills of Balinese craftsmen, combined with our design ideas and modern engineering enable us to create original bamboo structures that meet the needs of a diverse clientele. While Ibuku provides detailed design and consultation services, the actual construction and implementation are handled by the client or their appointed contractors.
