EBIOBAMBU
First National School of Bamboo Construction in Brazil
The School of Bioarchitecture and Experimental Research and Technology Center in Bamboo, located in Visconde de Mauá, was founded in 2002 by architect Celina Llerena. We work for the preservation of biodiversity and the restoration of degraded areas, cultivating bamboo within biodiverse and agroecological agroforestry systems.
Our school conducts research and experiments to share knowledge on natural and ecological materials — such as earth, fibers, ceramics, recycled materials, green roofs, and especially bamboo — applied to sustainable construction and design.
We bring together professionals committed to exploring, improving, and sharing environmental, cultural, and economic technologies. Over the years, Ebiobambu has carried out numerous training courses, projects, constructions, lectures, and studies focused on sustainable development and material performance.
Driven by our concern for water quality in the region, we developed ecological sanitation systems, including a biosystem that serves up to 40 people and dry toilets that produce compost for our agroforests.
We remain dedicated to our commitment to the planet and to people, spreading technologies with low environmental impact and high social value.
Here, we learn by doing — guided by the pedagogy of enchantment and inner transformation.
Ebiobambu’s infrastructure is in constant growth — designed, built, and shaped daily through our courses and immersive experiences. We believe in a living and participatory architecture, engaging our students to leave their mark on our space and to carry a piece of us with them.
The school is set within a lush green area along the Marimbondo River, where our bamboo thrives and flourishes.
