Well, for starters, we have the traditional A frame built up on stilts to avoid flood damage...
There's the domed thatch, good for overly windy conditions,...
And once again, the A frame from the side.
Here in Ventura Co. and all the way up to San Luis Obispo, Bamboo grows near train tracks and river beds. Its not native but it sure gets around. It was originally used shreaded up in packaging in the 30's-60's on shipments from China, somehow it got dumped somewhere, and now its everywhere. I used it here on my remedial hut in my back yard. I also used the palm frawn idea, only I used Queen Palm, because the frawns are so whimsical and loopy, which makes a nice shaggyness... uh. yup. Good luck Jungletrader, can't wait to see the results!
