SEAD Build

1,796 bamboo poles. 3,624 screws. 5,764 bolts.

This project shows the power of small things adding up: every pole, screw, and bolt plays a role in building a space that endures. Its four heart-shaped entrances welcome all to gather and embrace the spirit of community, unity, and mindfulness at the heart of Burning Man Project

643 kg of bamboo, a rapidly renewable material, means less reliance on carbon-heavy building materials. That is huge for anyone watching our planet’s future.

HEARTBURST : is more than an installation: it is a lesson in care that scales, standing quietly in the Nevada desert as proof that stewardship happens in steady, thoughtful steps.
