It was completed in just 25 days with help from eight engineers and architects from both Vietnam and Italy. The structure includes 11 modules. The bamboo was prepared in Vietnam and assembled in Italy. The flexibility of the bamboo and structure help create multiple shapes for a relaxing place under the sun even in the city or rural areas.
