strong, resilient and cool
Nothing is more cooler than a house with a floor made up of splitted bamboo with small gaps and spaces letting the air to pass through. Kawayang sahig or bamboo floor is a common among Filipino peasants houses and resort cottages. Our early house way back 1979, has a bamboo floor according to my father.
