#TheArc is the new #gymnasium at #GreenSchool #Bali
It is not only an incredible work of #bamboo #architecture, but will also stand out as a new reference in lightweight structures altogether. Significant for its structural system, this totally #unprecedented #building required months of #research and development for its creation.
The #Arc employs one of nature’s greatest strategies for creating #large spaces with minimal structure. #Arches working in compression are held in place by tensioned anticlastic #gridshells. Each #gridshell appears to drape across the spaces between impossibly thin arches soaring overhead, giving a #whimsy, #intimacy and #beauty to the space. The gridshells appear to hang from the arches, weighing them down, but in reality the gridshells themselves are #structural, helping to redistribute the weight along the arches.
Completed on #EarthDay in 2021, The Arc is 23,5 m (75 ft) wide, 41 m (134 ft) long and 14 m (46 ft) tall. Its floor area is 760 sqm (8,180 sf).
