Project Overview
Project Name: The Cross House / Cross House
Location: Bama, Guangxi

Design Period: October 2010 – February 2011
Structure: Glued bamboo ribbed system
Material: Glued bamboo
This project utilized parametric design as a key tool to accomplish three critical objectives: first, to compare and select the optimal combination of building volume and terrain; second, to classify the building plans alongside prefabricated structural components; and third, to achieve the facade design by controlling the density of bamboo louvers.
The integration of digital technology helped optimize the variety of building plans and prefabricated components. This approach is highly significant for reducing construction costs, shortening the building timeline, and easing the overall project implementation.
