Recently Elora Hardy had a successful fashion career in New York, but in 2010 she decided to return home to Bali, Indonesia. Then she founded a design firm Ibuku.
The firm constructs amazing hand-made houses for a living, using local resource of bamboo. She and her team have renovated the bamboo construction technique. They treat the construction material with boron to make it indigestible to insects, so bamboo structures last for a very long time. Today the firm has eight completed unique beautiful residences in Green Village, which is a resort community along the Ayung River.
