Text description provided by the architects. The Bamboo Amphitheater Space Structure is a mobile free-form roof spanning 17 x 12 meters, in a total of 200m² of covered area. The Amphitheater is located on the banks of the Rainha River on an inclined site in the tropical climate, built in the green campus of the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The bamboo structure was designed on the foundation previously designed by the architect Carlos Pingarrilho. The structural design was developed through a form-finding method, using physical scale models and computer models in interaction.
