Choose.

Valid for certain values of 'ecology'? Or 'car'?


The Ajiro Bamboo Bike is Grown From the Ground Up | Inhabitat - Sustainable Design Innovation, Eco Architecture, Green Building

This bamboo Ajiro concept bicycle rethinks both our means of transportation and the ways we manufacture our vehicles. Designed by Monash University student Alexander Vittouris, the Ajiro utilizes a production process that removes emissions instead of releasing them into the Earth’s atmosphere. That’s because the bamboo structure of this vehicle is grown straight out of the ground into a preformed mold. Vittouris envisions fields of bamboo gardens growing these human powered bicycles, which need only small modifications once mature to hit the streets.
