A new choice in construction material

I've always had an interest in materials science (yes, I am very much a geek!); simply put, matter is simply fascinating, in all its forms. But the really interesting part of that comes in the applications of materials. It is how we choose to use materials and the ingenious methods used to transform materials into other forms that is truly interesting.

Here is a new material that I believe has a lot of possibilities: Bamboo lumber. It's nice to see that some people keep thinking outside of the box!
