Elastic Band Buildings

The Mason Lane Farm Secures Sustainability With Eco-Friendly Structure

What I first took for an elastic band exterior is Mason Lane Farm's beautiful bamboo construction. Using sustainable material for a sustaining facility is pretty poetic.

Designed by Louisville-based De Leon & Primmer Architecture Workshop, they envisioned this eco farm facility to be as a close to nature as it can possibly get—an impressive feat considering the function of farms. The Mason Lane Farm will support 2,000 acres of agriculture, recreation, wildlife habitat and conservation land.
