An example of flat split bamboo being used as a decorative material for ceilings and walls.
Flat split bamboo is a processing method in which a round bamboo is split into equal parts and then both ends are shaved off to make the width uniform.
It is used for a wide range of purposes, such as bamboo fences, dog-shaped yard rails, and interior materials.
In this example, a single bamboo is bent and used from the wall to the ceiling, taking advantage of the flexibility of flat split bamboo.
In addition, the bamboo is illuminated with indirect lighting to create a fantastic atmosphere.
