IBUKU Studio

IBUKU Studio Rooted in bamboo innovation with an ever-expanding material palette, we merge architecture with the artisanal, igniting delight and provoking wonder.

Our story is a captivating one that began in a community of design innovators in Bali. In 2006, renowned jewelry designer John Hardy gathered a team to build the Green School from bamboo in order to inspire future green leaders worldwide. In 2010, John’s daughter Elora returned to Bali to continue the bamboo design revolution under the IBUKU brand. Today, our team of experts, led by Creative Direc

tor, Elora Hardy, has designed over 50 structures. Bamboo can change the way we build, because of its strength, flexibility, and rapid growth cycle. We have developed distinct treatment and construction methods that have greatly enhanced bamboo’s lifespan as a building material. Contact Us:

A hand on the smooth wooden handle of an antique door, softened by years of use. A copper bathtub holds the warmth. A rug underfoot grounds us in place. Stones are arranged with care, solid and balanced, showing how things are made.

A room that wraps around you, a quiet cocoon.

Every corner of the interior is designed to invite exploration, creating a sense of discovery as you move through the house.

And this one is a room with a bed that asks you to stay a little longer.
