“…Bamboo buildings have a different structural logic because of the disparities in architects' design approaches. When designing structures, some architects concentrate on the structural qualities of bamboo, utilizing it as columns and in combination with other materials to support weights [8].…”

The Gestalt theory of mental completeness in architecture gave rise to the ideas of “positive space” and “negative space”. This research digs into the sturdy structural building process of bamboo architecture, which is essentially distinguished by “negative space”. It examines how bamboo is articulated in architectural space, while attempting to establish a balance between form and structure, with the goal of discovering the current value and spiritual position that bamboo in architecture represents. Using the Phu Quoc Island Visitor Center in Vietnam as an example, we introduce the strong structure concept and examine its design process in terms of spatial operation technique and strong structural expression logic. The fundamental strategy for creating bamboo architecture under this concept is to take the lead in negative space design and use the material capabilities of bamboo to build structural space prototypes. This further encourages the use of green building materials and offers architects working with bamboo a reference.

Bamboo is known for its ability to grow at a high speed, with strong sustainability indicators and remarkable strength properties. However, despite these qualities, the practice of designing bamboo structures is still in its early stages in many regions. This paper aims to review the current approaches to structural analysis and design for bamboo structures as found in the existing literature. Through this comprehensive review, this study seeks to identify existing research gaps and areas that require further exploration. The limited design philosophy for bamboo structures can be attributed to the scarcity of studies on the characteristics and mechanics of bamboo material. These findings highlight the necessity for more comprehensive guidelines and standards to enhance the structural analysis and design of bamboo structures. This study identifies gaps in the following areas: lack of consideration for bamboo fiber distribution, lack of guidelines for load parameters specific to bamboo structures, inadequate coverage of bamboo culm connections, inadequate coverage on connection stiffness, limited scope on connection types, and species-specific limitations in standards.

Designers often face the challenge of getting stuck with rigid and dogmatic ideas, leading to a limited number of design options being produced. While experience and talent can help overcome this, it can still take a significant amount of time and effort. This study proposes a repeatable, dynamic process that transforms all design components into parameters, creates a structural analysis model, and performs an optimization process that integrates design and structural analysis. Thus, by leveraging the power of technology, designers can generate a larger number of high-quality design options quickly and efficiently. The article evaluates the effectiveness of this proposed method in generating 2D lattice design concepts and highlights its ability to improve the quality of the design options generated and simplify the idea and concept generation process. The novelty of this method lies in its ability to create a flexible and dynamic approach to design, enabling designers to move beyond dogmatic ideas and generate a larger number of innovative design options. Another purpose of this article is to explore the potential of computer-aided computational design software in generating new and innovative design concepts.
