Barr Real Estate Condo Refit

Barr Real Estate out of Champaign, IL has recently refit the interior of a condo complex in Urbana, IL with Lamboo® Design™ materials. Lamboo® was used for the interior wall paneling, balcony sides and top, ceiling panel systems with recessed lighting, and to box in beams and columns throughout the building.


Joe Camfield from Barr Real Estate says, "Lamboo is a very workable material. I am pleased with the look of the paneling and the building now that it's finished with the Lamboo."

Lamboo® Design™ materials are an excellent alternative for panel & veneer systems and textile applications. Lamboo is rapidly renewable, sustainable, and brings an innovative touch when used within designs. Contact Lamboo to integrate Lamboo materials into your designs today!

Lamboo Studio Project

The Lamboo Studio Project brings functionality, sustainability, and performance together to result in a building with optimal physical and mechanical properties.


This studio consists of multiple divisions of Lamboo products that will be integrated within the project. Lamboo Structure (Laminated Structural Bamboo) curved beams are used for the roof structure and Lamboo beams implemented for the floor/deck joists. Lamboo Design products were incorporated for interior paneling and custom furniture designs. Lamboo Vue component material was used for the windows and doors.


The design of this studio space and its custom “S” shaped roof allows for it to consume the most sunlight in the winter months and the least in the summer months. This feature helps to achieve the most possible sunlight into the living space during the winter solstice to naturally heat the space while still achieving full sun activity on all solar panels.


During the summer solstice the “S” shaped roof overhang does not allow for sun to shine into the studio, yet stops the sunlight at the deck. This helps save on cooling energy and will result in maintaining much cooler conditions naturally through the summer months and still resulting in 100% solar panel activity.
